Also history in this geographic location tells us that very bad very wet winters tend to be followed by super hot and dry Summers.

I am looking personally for an extremely wet Spring and a stormy one follwed by a early wet Summer then it gets very dry especially southern Kentucky. How long will it last maybe not dangerously long. You can all go to the CPC which stand for Climate Prediction Center and see one month up to three month forecasted outlooks. I will tell you this though they have been HORRIBLY off for months in many locations.
I like to use past history, it will hold true more than anything. This Summer may indeed be very very dry?
I agree I always thought that precipitation and heat degree days pretty well averaged out over a year.
