It’s official: this has been the wettest month of June on record in Edmonton, with records dating back to the late 1800s.

The city sits at 255mm of rain up to noon on Sunday, June 28th (with a chance to add to that total later in the day).

That tops the previous record of 217mm from June, 1914.

The official weather station at Edmonton’s International Airport only has records dating back to the mid 1960s and that station had already set the record for wettest June earlier in the week.

That weather station now sits at 212mm of rain (so far) in the month of June.

The wettest month on record in Edmonton is July, 1901. 283mm of rain fell that month.

June 2026 has now moved into second on the all-time wettest months list.

A few notes:

• There are backyard weather stations around the city that have reported even more rain this past month than what the Environment and Climate Change Canada stations are reporting.
• The June rain total for Blatchford is an estimate.  The official number (as of Noon June 28) is 248mm because the data from June 26th is missing.  However, an average of 7mm of rain fell at surrounding stations on that date so I’ve added seven to the Blatchford total.

Even without that 7mm, this is still the wettest June on record for Edmonton.
