According to the National Oceanic Atmospheric Adminstration, the month saw an average of 4.36 inches of rain, topping the previous record of October 2009 by .07 inches. Oklahoma and Texas took the brunt of the bad weather, but many states on the East Coast experienced Mays that were drier than average.
