The eastern half of Minnesota saw the bulk of the latest round of rainfall across the Midwest.

A map from the National Weather Service displaying the accumulated precipitation from Saturday, Sept. 22 to Wednesday, Sept. 27 shows the highest rainfall totals fell along the state border with Iowa and Wisconsin and north into Duluth and the North Shore.

In the Twin Cities area, the higher totals were reported in the west and northwest metro, with a report of 9.61″ falling northwest of Nowthen in that time span. Meanwhile, a report of 7.4″ fell just north of Wayzata, 7.2″ fell between Dayton and Rogers, 6.85″ fell in Brooklyn Center and 6.22″ fell west of Andover.

Meanwhile, Minneapolis, the southwest metro, and much of the east metro saw anywhere from 2-3.99″ of rainfall during that timeframe.

These are just the official observations.

Parts of the North Shore from Duluth to Two Harbors got 6-7" of rain.

The west Twin Cities metro had 4-6" locally.

As previously reported by 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS, anywhere from 1.5″ to 4.48″ fell across parts of the state from 12 a.m. Saturday through 10:30 a.m. Sunday.

Although the area received a lot of much-needed rain, the dry conditions are ongoing, as the region will need 7-8″ of rain to end the drought across the Twin Cities. Any rain that fell prior to 7 a.m. Tuesday will be part of the data released in the U.S. Drought Monitor’s report early Thursday morning.

Last week’s drought report showed extreme drought levels cover more than a quarter of Minnesota, and exceptional drought conditions are reported in nearly 3% of the state.

7” to 8” of Rain would end the Drought in MSP & since Saturday into this AM Sunday the MSP area has seen 1” to 3” of Widespread Rainfall. Today Rain ends before 10am then some Peeks of early afternoon Sun followed by more Rain/T-Storms after 3pm with .25” to 1” by AM Monday @KSTP pic.twitter.com/6YtoNkncW1
