Between 1961 and 1990, the Tug Hill Plateau and Eastern Adirondacks averaged 65 inches of precipitation a year. This is the wettest part of the state. In contrast, the Finger Lakes region of the state only receives about 35 inches a year on average. http://cugir.mannlib.cornell.edu/datatheme.jsp?id=164
