sweetapricity/bridgedeck-noaa huggingface dataset:
A strong, Pacific low pressure system generated a large WNW swell of 8 to 10 feet around 14 seconds. This produced high surf conditions along the west-facing San Diego and Orange County beaches. Average surf heights were 5-8 feet with sets to 12 feet in some areas. This surf contributed to severe beach erosion at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas. Erosion of up to 4 feet has erased a large portion of the sand replacement project previously in place.

Rainfall was frequent for the first week of May with a statewide average of 1.91 inches falling. However, the next two weeks were very dry with an average of only 0.18 inches falling from the 8th through the 22nd.  Frequent high winds, low humidity and high temperatures left the topsoil exceptionally dry. No measureable rain was recorded in some central and east central locations for 19 consecutive days (5th through the 23rd), an exceptional streak for a month when rain typically falls more than one day of every three.  Rain came more frequently late in the month but remained less than usual over most of central and southern Iowa.  However, rainfall was frequent and substantial over the northwest one-quarter of the state where some locations recorded double the usual May total.  Very heavy rainfall occurred over southwest Minnesota, resulting in minor flooding along the upper reaches of the Des Moines River in the Estherville area.  Monthly rain totals varied from 1.16 inches at Maquoketa, their lowest May total since 1992, to 8.41 inches at Sibley which was their greatest May total since 1959.

A deep upper level low pressure system that produced severe thunderstorms across the southern half of Northeast Texas into much of Northern Louisiana produced widespread rain across all of Northeast Texas during Christmas Day. However, much colder arctic air moved into the Middle Red River Valley during the late afternoon and evening hours of the 25th which allowed the rain to change over to snow very quickly. Lighter amounts of accumulating snow was reported across a few counties in Northeast Texas. This heavy wet snow resulted in a few minor traffic accidents dur to snow accumulating on some roadways and overpasses. The following were some snowfall accumulations across Northeast Texas: 2-3 inches near Quitman, 2.5 inches in Mineola, 2 inches near Lindale, 2 inches near Gilmer, Gladewater and Longview, 1 inch near Tyler.
