Rainiest cities

Andy, I too read that Yahoo article about the rainiest cities.
I responded to them to let them know their studies were wrong.
Following is what I said and what they replied.

Hi Robert,
They weren't my findings, as I didn't conduct the study.
I meant to state that the study on only looked at the contiguous
48
states and have made a correction to the story on our site to
note that
and that places in Hawaii and Alaska actually get more rain.
Cheers,
Andrea

After living in Ketchikan Alaska for 14 years I have to dispute
your
findings. I think you will find Ketchikan's average precipitation
to be
much more than Alabama's. This is of course unless you are saying
a
"city" in this study must have a certain amount of
population to be part
of the study.
