20-25 inches!
And you worry about too much rain?
We're considered to be quite high up the side of our hill, (Mt. Egmont,) 750 ft., and we get 6 ft. of rain annually whether we need it or not.
And we've had snow only about half-a-dozen times in the last fifty years.

With those two factors, that's why we can grow grass all year round, (albeit a bit more slowly over winter,) and can run dairy cows outside all year round too.
Yep; God's Own Country alright!
