| 2026-03-14 | 6:12 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Heavy frost on the outside of the cylinder but no precipitation captured inside. High winds yesterday may have precluded anything from entering the cylinder; however, any precipitation that occurred was very light with only short bursts during the morning hours. |
| 2026-03-13 | 7:28 AM | 0.03 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | High winds this morning. Some mixed precipitation fell overnight. While I was switching out the cylinders, the wind knocked over the one I was replacing. I don’t believe I lost much liquid but my report may be slightly below others in the area. No snow flurries observed as temps were in the 40s early this morning. |
| 2026-03-12 | 7:20 AM | 0.05 | T | T | T | T | | Mixed precipitation fell on and off for most of the morning and afternoon yesterday. It started as drizzle then changed over to snow and then back to sleet. Not much was captured in the board so I set all the snow fields to a trace. Most of the snowpack is likely due to frost.
updated: once the residue in the cylinder melted down, I read .05” of precipitation. The majority of this was likely rain since the snowboard had only frost on the surface. |
| 2026-03-11 | 7:23 AM | 0.24 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | A quick heavy rain came through early this morning. It has since dissipated into light drizzle. Temps are cool -in the low 30s- so I’m rather surprised there’s not more ice mixed in. Precipitation expected throughout the day. |
| 2026-03-10 | 7:22 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Unseasonably warm yesterday with a strong sw breeze. No precipitation observed or captured. Temps dropped overnight and continue to fall. |
| 2026-03-09 | 7:22 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | No precipitation observed yesterday. Temps were in the 60s; it was breezy and sunny. This morning is much the same with winds from the southwest and temps expected in the 60s once again. |
| 2026-03-08 | 7:27 AM | 0.01 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Precipitation captured was residual from yesterday morning’s rain event. Temps dropped through the day with no additional accumulation. Today skies are clearing and temps are expected to rise once again. No snow pack is present. |
| 2026-03-07 | 5:42 AM | 0.65 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Light rain yesterday with a stronger round coming through in the early morning hours. Although I thought we would easily have an inch or more of rain based on observation, the rain gauge only captured .65 inches in the cylinder. It continues to be overcast this morning with most of the rain having moved out; however, there may still be a shower or two this morning. |
| 2026-03-06 | 7:17 AM | T | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Dense fog again this morning. While I did not witness any rain myself, there was a trace of precipitation captured in the gauge. It may be just fog moisture but I reported it as a trace. Temps are in the low 40a and a good deal of rain and storms are expected today and tonight. |
| 2026-03-05 | 7:20 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Dense fog this morning and overcast. There was a trace amount of moisture in the cylinder; however, I’m nearly certain that is just moisture from the fog as I see no other signs of rain. |
| 2026-03-04 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | No precipitation observed. I somehow forgot to submit my observation after checking the gauge yesterday morning. |
| 2026-03-03 | 7:17 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | T | T | | Just a few stray drops captured in the gauge this morning. S system of light freezing rain is expected this morning but nothing much has yet hit the ground. There are still small patches of light snow in the shady areas of the yard but it is very few and far between. |
| 2026-03-02 | 7:23 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | T | T | | Sunny skies yesterday melted most of the snowfall except for shadier parts of the landscape. Quiet this morning with sunny skies. Warmer temps today should help to melt the snow in the shadier areas as well. |
| 2026-03-01 | 7:50 AM | 0.08 | 2.5 | 0.07 | 2.5 | 0.07 | | Heavy snow fell over a several hour period yesterday afternoon and early evening. Temps cooled off quickly so little snowboard melt was observed. SWE and gauge capture are nearly equivalent with the gauge capture coming in right at .08” and the snowboard SWE coming in at the midpoint between.07 and .08; I recorded it at the lower number. |
| 2026-02-28 | 6:15 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Warm and breezy yesterday. No precipitation recorded; however, a front with snow is approaching from the west today. |
| 2026-02-27 | 7:28 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Very frosty morning but nothing captured on board or in cylinder. Sunny right now with temps expected to be in the 50s today. |
| 2026-02-26 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | No precipitation captured. Most of the dusting of snow has melted. |
| 2026-02-25 | 7:26 AM | T | T | T | T | T | | Light flurries occurred yesterday afternoon and early evening; however, only a slight dusting collected on both the snowboard and in the gauge. |
| 2026-02-24 | 7:26 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | No precipitation observed over the last 24 hours. Temps are still very chilly -in the teens. Any light dusting of snow melted with the sun yesterday. |
| 2026-02-23 | 7:36 AM | T | T | T | T | T | | Snow flurries were seen on and off all day yesterday and through the night. However there were very light and only amounted to a trace in the cylinder and on the snow board. |
| 2026-02-22 | 7:00 AM | T | T | T | T | T | | Light snow showers began around 4 AM this morning. Not much is sticking to the ground; however, there is a distinction the hard surfaces and the snowboard. Not enough on the board to take a core sample. |
| 2026-02-21 | 8:00 AM | T | T | T | 0.0 | 0.00 | | A squall of sleet and light snow came though 2/20 around 9 am; however, only a drop or two were captured in the cylinder. The snowboard had a very light icing on it but nothing that can be measured. Temps have dropped into the 20s. |
| 2026-02-20 | 7:21 AM | 0.27 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Rain came through overnight. Lightening was seen around 8 pm last evening but no thunder heard. Temps have dropped into the low 30s. Calm so far this morning but winds are expected to pick up and more precipitation is in the forecast. |
| 2026-02-19 | 7:39 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | No precipitation captured. Temps were unseasonably warm again yesterday with strong winds from the SW. clearing skies this morning with temps in the 20s. No snowpack available to measure. |
| 2026-02-18 | 7:21 AM | 0.03 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Light showers came through overnight but skies are now clearing. Not much precipitation collected. Winds are breezy from the southwest, setting it up to be another warm springlike day. |
| 2026-02-17 | 7:31 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No precipitation again today although that’s expected to change in the coming days. Temps were on the 60s yesterday. The only snow pack left is in the densely shaded areas or areas of shoveling piles. |
| 2026-02-16 | 7:36 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | T | T | | No precipitation observed. Warm yesterday with more snow melt. Most of the snow pack has disappeared. |
| 2026-02-15 | 7:34 AM | T | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | A few drops of a light passing shower went through early this morning. Dampened about 60% of the pavement and a few drops were caught in the gauge. Yesterday’s warm weather did significant melting and I’d estimate our snowpack at about 50% of my 3 acres. All sunny spots are void of snow but the shadier spots have a bit of crusty layer yet. |
| 2026-02-14 | 5:39 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Once again there was no precipitation recorded yesterday or overnight. Significant melting occurred yesterday and there are many bare spots. |
| 2026-02-13 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Once again no precipitation was captured. Temps expected in the 50s today so lots of melting is likely. |
| 2026-02-12 | 7:30 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | More melting occurred yesterday. The snow is very crusty and more bare patches are beginning to pop through. |
| 2026-02-11 | 7:21 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No precipitation captured on snowboard or in cylinder. The snowpack is definitely melting away. Patches of grass are peeking through in the sunnier areas of the yard. The snowpack is crunchy especially in the areas that have been Wales on my people or animals. Temps are getting warmer so I’m expecting melting to accelerate in the next few days. |
| 2026-02-10 | 7:27 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No precipitation observed yesterday or overnight. Temps were warm - in the 30s. Calm this morning with temps continuing in the 30s. There is definite melting occurring; I will update snowpack later today. |
| 2026-02-09 | 7:30 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No precipitation captured in cylinder or on snowboard. Temps in the low teens. Calm winds. |
| 2026-02-08 | 7:42 AM | 0.04 | 1.3 | 0.05 | NA | NA | | Light snow overnight. Temps are in the upper teens. The snowboard caught 1.3” on average. Updated with snowfall SWE at 7:58 am. |
| 2026-02-07 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Nothing captured in cylinder or on snow board this morning. Sunny and cold again with temps in the low teens. |
| 2026-02-06 | 7:35 AM | 0.10 | 1.2 | 0.11 | NA | NA | | Light snow fell in the early morning hours. Gauge capture was .1”. Snowboard measured 1.2”. I will update SWE once it has melted.
updated at 8:30 am with snowfall SWE. |
| 2026-02-05 | 7:52 AM | T | T | T | NA | NA | | A light dusting of snow was present on the sidewalks and hard surfaces this morning. Very little was caught in the gauge but there was a trace. Temps in the teens with very light snow beginning to fall again. |
| 2026-02-04 | 7:25 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 4.1 | 0.51 | | Lots of frost again this morning but no precipitation observed. I took a snowpack measurement late yesterday afternoon and have included it with today’s reading since there’s little chance anything melted overnight. |
| 2026-02-03 | 7:30 AM | T | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Trace of precipitation in the cylinder this morning although it may only be due to frost. Nothing noticeable on the snowboard. Temps near zero this morning again so there is significant frost on most hard surfaces. I will try to take a snowpack core later today and will update. |
| 2026-02-02 | 7:35 AM | T | T | T | NA | NA | | Snow flurries overnight delivered only a trace of precipitation in the gauge once melted. Only a few flakes are present on snow board. Warmer with temps in the upper teens. |
| 2026-02-01 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | The cylinder was frosted heavily this morning but no measurable precipitation. Calm winds and temps in the single digits at reading time. |
| 2026-01-31 | 8:00 AM | T | T | T | NA | NA | | A very light dusting of snow was evident this morning. The gauge did capture some of it but it did not amount to much when melted bin calling it a trace. No snow core collected. |
| 2026-01-30 | 7:46 AM | T | T | NA | NA | NA | | There was a short burst of flurries very early this morning. That has subsided but the gauge did capture a trace. It was not enough to capture a snow core. |
| 2026-01-29 | 7:16 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | My thermometer records the temp at -13 this morning. No precipitation again in the last 24 hours. |
| 2026-01-28 | 7:30 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 4.0 | 0.45 | | Temps below zero again - (-8). Calm winds. No measurable precipitation observed. Snowpack was recorded on an update yesterday. It currently sits at 4” with a sWE if .45”. |
| 2026-01-27 | 7:26 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 4.0 | 0.45 | | A brief burst of very light snow showers occurred around 5 am; however, they mostly appeared to be fine ice crystals and nothing really accumulated. It was a fine line between calling it a trace and “0” but I went with 0”. |
| 2026-01-26 | 7:20 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | The extreme cold continued yesterday and overnight. No precipitation captured or observed. Clear, calm and -9 degrees this morning. |
| 2026-01-25 | 7:38 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No precipitation observed or captured in gauge. Temps are warming slightly but still at zero or low single digits. |
| 2026-01-24 | 7:38 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No precipitation captured or observed over the last 24 hours. The deep freeze continues with our thermometer reading -20 this morning. Luckily the winds are still. |
| 2026-01-23 | 7:42 AM | T | T | T | NA | NA | | Very light dusting of snow present on the walks this morning. There was a brief squeal yesterday around 1 pm but it did t last long. The dusting occurred overnight. Barely a trace captured in the gauge and on the snow board. It was too light to measure. |
| 2026-01-22 | 7:37 AM | T | T | T | NA | NA | | There was a brief squall yesterday afternoon. The board and gauge only captured a trace however. Temps are in the single digits with an extreme arctic blast on the way. |
| 2026-01-21 | 8:00 AM | 0.09 | 1.4 | 0.08 | NA | NA | | Temps are in the mid teens. Calm winds. Snow began overnight and ended by 6 am. |
| 2026-01-20 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Temps well below zero overnight. No precipitation detected yesterday. |
| 2026-01-19 | 8:00 AM | 0.03 | 0.7 | 0.04 | 4.7 | 0.39 | | Extreme cold this morning. Light snow began falling around 3 pm yesterday. Off and on throughout the night and into early this morning. All snow stopped by 6 am. Very windy so both gauge capture and snowboard may have been impacted by the wind; however, both SWE measures were nearly equivalent. I will update snowpack later today.
updated with snowpack measurements at 4:35 pm. |
| 2026-01-18 | 7:00 AM | 0.02 | 0.9 | 0.03 | NA | NA | | Light snow continued throughout the day and evening yesterday. While only under an inch was captured on the snowboard, it seemed like there should have been a higher amount reported based on the number of times I shoveled! Nevertheless both the gauge and the snow core from the board once again were very equivalent in SWE. The gauge capture was closer to .025” but it rounded down to .02. |
| 2026-01-17 | 7:00 AM | 0.18 | 2.7 | 0.18 | NA | NA | | Snow began around 6 pm last evening - very sleety - and then changed over to snow. It got extremely windy for a short time as well.
it is not an error that my gauge capture and snowfall SWE match. That is how it measured out. It did seem like the snow had more water content than what was measured but this is how it melted down. I did add .5” of warmer water to the core each time and subtracted that from the total measure; this was the first time I used that method. Perhaps it’s not as exact as if I had just waited for it to melt on its own? |
| 2026-01-16 | 7:00 AM | 0.16 | 1.7 | NA | NA | NA | | Will complete new snowfall SWE layer this morning. |
| 2026-01-15 | 7:34 AM | T | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Slight trace of snow in gauge likely leftover from yesterday’s morning squalls. Nothing noticed overnight. Nothing captured on snowboard. |
| 2026-01-14 | 8:00 AM | 0.05 | 0.9 | NA | NA | NA | | Snow squall went through early in the morning. Snowboard collected .9” of snow; however, I did not have time to take a snow core. |
| 2026-01-13 | 7:26 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No measurable precipitation. There were a few raindrops on the sidewalk this morning but nothing captured in the gauge. Temps are expected to be in the upper 40s which should melt most of the little snowpack we have. |
| 2026-01-12 | 6:18 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | No precipitation captured or observed. |
| 2026-01-11 | 7:32 AM | T | T | T | NA | NA | | Light dusting occurred last evening but didn’t last long. By this morning the pavement has sporadic spots of flakes only. Only a drop caught in the gauge.
1/10 ob was taken at 1130 AM. MKX OPL BRM |
| 2026-01-10 | 11:30 AM | 0.28 | 2.4 | 0.22 | 2.4 | 0.22 | | Rain early this morning changed to snow around 6:00 am. I had an appointment earlier and could not measure until 11:30. It appears this current squall is ending. I forgot to get a snow core off the snowboard but will try to get it from another level surface and will update. |
| 2026-01-09 | 6:55 AM | 0.40 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Very warm and windy overnight with sporadic rain showers. Still lightly raining as of this reading. Temps have dropped to the mid-upper 30s. |
| 2026-01-08 | 7:25 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | | Nothing measurable captured in gauge. Temps are in the 40s. Most of the snow pack has melted. Only a few sporadic spots are left. |
| 2026-01-07 | 7:25 AM | 0.05 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Additional precipitation collected yesterday morning. The balance of the day and overnight was dry. Lots of melting occurring due to temps being in the upper 30s and low 40s. |
| 2026-01-06 | 8:00 AM | 0.44 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | It’s been raining since earlier this morning. Standing water is everywhere which hopefully will dry before the temps fall. Much of the snow pack is melting. |
| 2026-01-05 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Nothing caught in gauge altho the sidewalks were mildly damp this morning and it was too cold for it to be melting. So I assume a small amount of sleet fell overnight. |
| 2026-01-04 | 7:57 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | There was a small squall of sleet yesterday; however, nothing measurable. Nothing was captured in the gauge or on the snowboard. |
| 2026-01-03 | 8:00 AM | 0.00 | 0.0 | 0.00 | NA | NA | | Yesterday was the first sunny day we had in many days. No precipitation was detected. Today is cloudy with some upper level precipitation that is not reaching the ground. |
| 2026-01-02 | 7:54 AM | 0.05 | 0.3 | NA | NA | NA | | Snow was fairly consistent yesterday afternoon; however, it was light and fluffy since the temps were around 10. Snowboard measured 3/10” and it was difficult to get a core due to the lightness of the flakes. |
| 2026-01-01 | 8:00 AM | 0.04 | 0.3 | NA | NA | NA | | Sleet and snow occurred yesterday afternoon. Several squalls went through and another later last evening. The snowboard had 3/10 inch; however, it was icy and that made it difficult to get a snow core. |
