"...for the first time in nearly 40 years...." So, not the first time!

It's the first time since yesterday that it's rained!

We live a short time in the geospectrum. 40 years isn't nothing to a world 400 BILLION years old. But, it's a pretty good way to sensationalize something that's realistically normal!

It ranks up there with "I've lived here for 5 years and I've NEVER seen it rain that much", as he stands in a dried up river bed.
