I'm only talking about the total rainfall. I don't give a damn if it's cloudy or not. But in October we had that huge rainstorm followed by another substantial rainstorm maybe a week later. So I'd be more interested to see then total rainfall for October and November combined compared with an average year.

Did I say anything about clouds? Or did I give you numbers about total rainfall? Assuming we get a little under an inch today, factoring in October, we will have gotten ~3.5“ more rain over the two month period than the average. So an extra ~1.75” a month.

1.75" more than average per month seems like a lot to me considering average annual rainfall in southern Maine is apparently 42". We also have another inch of rain forecast for the next week.

Before todays storm we were at ~39” on the year

Yes, we had a drought over the summer. And we've more than made up for it already if this 39" (before today) figure is accurate.
