The estimated annual precipitation in Oakland is 22.94 inches (Oakland Weather). The average monthly precipitation for Oakland is 1.91167 inches.
Surprisingly just a few miles away one of Oakland’s neighboring cities, Berkeley, has an annual precipitation of 25.40 inches a year and an average monthly precipitation of 2.1167 inches. (Berkeley Weather)
In San Francisco the annual precipitation is 22.28 inches, and almost the same as Oakland’s estimate. The average monthly precipitation of San Francisco is 1.8567 inches. One might think that the average would be higher because San Francisco is known for its fog and the fact that it is an island but that does not seem to affect the data the way one would think.

Sunnyvale lives up to its name with less rainy days and more sunny ones as the annual precipitation is 15.08 inches. The average monthly precipitation is 0.1047 inches for Sunnyvale. (Sunnyvale weather)
