you have some drier years then some wetter years and then some avg years and it all equals out
All I can say is last year was wet as hell, yet my grass wasn't growing well at all (yard or pasture) because of the lack of rain we had for the first 6 months of the year.
So no, that's not how it works. That's how, as you said, averages work. But it's not how anything else works.
I mean, by that logic, getting 6" of rain at one time is the same as getting it over an entire month. It's still 6", right?
As a farmer, I would think you could grasp this concept and look beyond simple averages.

No shite - because we had one of the driest June on record but that doesn't mean it has to rain enough to catch up to your yearly avg for your grass to grow
You take an inch from August and put it June 15th and your grass is fine or if we had gotten 2in in Feb - again your grass would be better
Even with the lack of rain - if we would of had avg temps if wouldn't of been as bad
my whole point is we don't 50+ in of rain for anything so why are you worried being 16in under your yearly avg
