and the wettest large U.S. City is?

June 25th, 2007

Many of you may think it is Seattle, and with 150 days per year of precipitation it definitely ranks up there. But it is not the wettest. The top wettest large city in the U.S. is actually Syracuse, NY. This city gets 174 days of precipitation a year.

Or if you are measuring by how much (not how often) then the award goes to Mobile, AL and New Orleans, as both cities receive well over 60 inches of precipitation a year.
