An unprecedented summer of rainfall has broken a weather record held in West Virginia for more than 60 years. Weekend showers officially made this summer the wettest on record. Rainfall has now exceeded a 1958 West Virginia record with a summer that saw more than 23 inches of accumulation. The West Virginia National Guard has since been tasked with assisting in flood relief efforts in Kanawha County. The record-breaking accumulation may continue to mount in the coming days as meteorological summer starts June 1 and runs through the end of August.
