We've had 4.18" of rain so far this month. This time last year we had picked up 4.82".  We would normally see 2.16", so we've certainly seen above-average rainfall so far this year. Since January 1st, we've seen 8.21" of rain compared to 9.48" last year. We would normally see  5.57". We're also above normal for the Winter season, which Meteorological Winter started on December 1st.
