Rainfall for February, 2007 was below normal for all of Central and Southern Louisiana, and most of Southeast Texas. Most of the rainfall totals ranged between 1 and 3 inches, which is roughly 25-50% of the normal expected for February. Most of the rainfall came within the February 12-13th Tornadoes, Severe Weather, and Flooding event, which attributed to the slight surplus of rainfall across portions of Southeast Texas.

Several cold fronts with significant freezes kept the mean temperatures across the region between 1 and 2 degrees below normal.

The following tables are compiled from the Automatic Surface Observing System (ASOS) and Cooperative Observer network within the National Weather Service Lake Charles area of responsibility, using data obtained from NOAA's Regional Climate Center xmACIS,  WxCoder, and mailed in Cooperative Observer B-29 forms. Many thanks goes out to our Hydro Meteorological Technicians Todd Mogged and Jimmy Nunn, whom maintains the cooperative observing equipment that our observers use to provide this information.

Rainfall graphics were obtained from the Lower Mississippi River Forecast Center's Precipitation Analysis product.
