Not unusual, just changing. "Nearby" in central Alabama, I've seen various patterns that persist for a number of years and then change. The rain nearly every day during summer for the past 5-ish years that you've seen. My sprinkler system died about 4 years ago and I haven't needed to fix it. Prior to that it was rain a bunch, dry for a week or more, rain a bunch. In the later 90's it was no rain for 2+ weeks, must water everything constantly. That is when I put in the sprinkler. Winter has has it's own patterns too.
