I have been able to find all kinds of averages and totals per month or extremes per 24hrs but I can't find any info about how many inches of rain fall per storm event on average.

I have been able to figure out that May (for example) gets 5" of rain over 9 days of precipitation, so a little less than 2" per storm. While a different month gets 4" over 13 rain days for .3 inches per rain day that month. But I can't find the data broken down by event or even by 24hr increments.

Can anyone help? This is for Cincinnati.

Would be a fun stat to find. Not every event is a "storm" so it wouldn't be well documented for say just a front or a weak short wave. You would have to look at the hourly OBS for specific days when the rain fell. Hope this helps somewhat.


Try here, search by date, you'll see the breakdown per hour.
