Memorial Day weekend wasn't quite a washout, but for a lot of people, there wasn't much useful about the weather. In Denver the rain by Monday added up to 3.10 inches of precipitation for the month so far in Denver. That's significantly more than the norm said National Weather Service meteorologist Kenley Bonner. "That puts us 1.3 inches above the norm for May," she explained.
