I think Philadelphia is in the middle of a notably long time (possibly a record) without rain, too.

New Jersey just had a record dry September and October: https://www.northjersey.com/story/weather/2024/11/01/2024-nj-driest-september-october-recorded-history-rain/75992861007/

Plenty of places had no measurable rainfall.

NYC water supply is an hour north in Westchester and 2 hours north in the Catskills. They don't drink ground water from their locale.
