The most rain recorded in Tennessee was 3.25" in Clifton.
The most rain in Texas was 0.57" in Fort Davis.
No rain was recorded in Tarrant County, Texas.
So far 4388 CoCoRaHS entries have been made and the greatest amount of rain was 3.25" at Clifton, Tennessee and Jacksonville, Florida. (An entry for Cameron Park, Texas of 7.20" appeared to be for 7/22/2008 thru 7/24/2008, not sure why it was entered for this date, maybe inexperienced station. Entry for Sunland Park, New Mexico for 3.32 was confusing and I couldn't tell for sure when the actual reading took place and what time period it covered, so I left it out. The next most rain in New Mexico was 1.75" in Silver City.)
