There are two seasons here. Noah's Arc and On Fire.

Numbers don't tell the whole story, most of that 65 mm comes from one or two thunderstorms that roll in late in the afternoon dropping monsoon rain and hail in 30 minutes and then it's sunny again.
Vancouver's 35 mm in July is 4 or 5 days of dreary/misty cloud covered days.
