Left town by 2 PM for trip. Neighbor measured 11 total by 6 PM. Measured an additional 6.5 by 7 AM this morning.
12/20/2009 7:00 AM T T T 17.0 M Still out of town. Two measurements from neighbor (see the notes from yesterday's observation) who came and measured snow on board. Will measure total precip in liquid form when we return as a multi day report.
12/21/2009 7:00 AM T T T 15.5 M Neighbor reporting while out of town and only reporting snowfall. All other precip will be reported as a multi day report when I return. Some light snow flurries but snow pack still in excess of 15 inches.
12/25/2009 7:00 AM 2.01 0.0 0.00 8.0 1.46 Significant rainfall overnight. Never fell below freezing but temps in lower to mid 30s. Snows beginning to melt in earnest but still significant amounts on the ground.
12/26/2009 7:00 AM 0.48 0.0 0.00 5.0 1.48 Heavy rain yesterday morning gave way to light drizzle then dry conditions. Snowfall depth is an average around the yard and on board. Some southern exposure spots are melted tothe ground, others that are more shaded still have nearly 10 inches. Some spots around are experiencing flooding due to the excessive melting and rain over the past few days. Ground can't take much more.
12/27/2009 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 4.5 1.27 Still significant snow cover on ground.
12/28/2009 7:00 AM T T T 3.5 1.06 Few flurries late last night. So cold none really melted as they were still on car and in guage this AM.
12/29/2009 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 3.5 1.03 Still significant snow cover in yard as I am North Facing and most of yard is shaded by trees or the house away from winter sun. Very little if any melting took place yesterday as it was very cold and in the lower 30s all day and in lower 20s last night.
12/30/2009 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 T T Yard is now much less than half covered with snow. Where it is covered it ranges from less than an inch to upwards of 4+. Some areas where it slid off the roof it is more than 10+ but this was due to piles not actual snowfall in that area. With cold temps that will likely not melt for another week or more.
12/31/2009 7:00 AM 0.02 0.1 0.01 T T Sleet and Snow after 9 last night but ending/transitioning to light mist/drizzle by 10 pm. Quick covering on ground but as temps warmed most melted. Still snow on ground from previous storm on 12/18 on half of the yard or a little less.

1/3/2010 7:00 AM T T T T T Continues snow flurries from system that arrived night before.
1/4/2010 7:00 AM T T T T T Temps so cold even with no cloud cover there are a few slight flurries floating int he air and a tiny bit of evidence on cars of extremely light snowfall last night. Odd. 2nd morning in a row with a low temp of 10 degrees.This airmass will stay with us until Wed when we see some moderation it appears. Longest consecutive period of temps below 30 since 1977. More on the heelsfor late week and weekend. Any precip over the next week + will be frozen. Still some lingering evidence of the massive snow event of Dec 18in yard.
1/5/2010 7:00 AM T T T T T Snow flurries yesterday AM at observation time and into the AM. More snow flurries and a light snow shower over night. Should see more later today. Temps moderated last night...to 14. One of the longest stretches of freezing weather in recent memory.
1/6/2010 7:00 AM T 0.1 T T T Light snow flurries yesterday with at least one or two more organized showers breaking out across the TN border. Still a few flurries after observation time.

1/8/2010 7:00 AM T 0.1 T T T Wife took computer to work. School cancelled so I stayed home with kids. Just now getting to report. Light snow began last night around 9 and did not last very long. Another shot between 6 & 7 this AM. Very cold. Last night at midnight it was 28. By the observation time it was around 10. WOW!
1/9/2010 7:00 AM T T T T T Light snow flurries for most of the first half of the day. Temps never got above 15 all day (high was at midnight at 28). One of the coldest days in recent memory. Air is very heavy and even though basically clear still squeezes out occasional snow flurries from time to time. Moderation by Monday-hopefully. Today marks the 7th out last 8 days where we will likely NOT see temps above freezing.
1/10/2010 7:00 AM T T T T T Light snow flurries over about half of the day yesterday followed by a few more organized, but light snow showers last night. Very cold...still.
1/11/2010 7:00 AM T T T T T AM snow flurries that were fairly steady and very light until about 9:30 AM yesterday. Single digits this AM at observation time. Brutal pattern that hopefully will break this week.

1/13/2010 7:00 AM 0.01 0.2 T T T Freezing drizzle right after yesterday's obersvation time, followed by light snow. Snow tapered off by late morning, but temps remained cold throughout the day. Hoping for a warm up today.

1/24/2010 7:00 AM 0.20 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Light drizzle last night evolving into actual rain well after midnight with the approaching of a strong front from the West. Wind picked up but has subsided. Appear to be back into our wet pattern of last fall and early winter.
1/25/2010 7:00 AM 2.04 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Extremely heavy rain with cold front passage last night. Temps warmed to almost 60 leading to very unstable airmass. Cooling rapidly today and tonight which may lead to snow activity late. Wacky weather. Some areas observed moderate flooding as a result of the storm. Yard nearly saturated and some streets totally flooded as storm drains were maxed.
1/26/2010 7:00 AM 0.01 0.1 0.01 T 0.01 Trace to a light dusting of snow on grass and various objects, (cars, etc).

1/29/2010 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 More calm before the storm. Look for signif. accumulations by tonight of snow and sleet.
1/30/2010 7:00 AM 1.22 8.7 1.22 8.0 1.22 Snow began around 2:30. By 7:30 had 6 inches then holes in precip shield developed. Some mixing with rain and sleet has caused some packing of snow. Currently snowing with sleet mixed in. Very cold and more precip on the way. Significant danger of loss of power and an icy base underneath where a thin layer has melted and re-frozen. 2nd significant snow event of the winter. Would love to know when last time we had two snow events of this magnitude in same winter was.
1/31/2010 7:00 AM 0.08 0.4 M 6.5 0.98 Light sleet, snow, and freezing drizzle on and off through much of the day. Several sleet and snow showers would yeild a quick tenth of an inch in accumulations before tapering off (about 4 times yesterday). Total storm accumulations for me 9.1.
2/1/2010 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 5.5 0.90 Snow covered yard. Brutal cold into the mid teens last night. Significant melting today as temps rise into 40s but chance of frozen falling weather tonight should make things interesting.
2/2/2010 7:00 AM 0.24 0.0 0.00 3.0 0.89 Light rain and temps just below or at freezing. Roads are wet and not frozen but trees have very light glaze. Power lines appear OK at this point. I hate ice storms. I think melted value of core sample is so high relative to yesterday due to extra rain overnight being held in snow pack.
2/3/2010 7:00 AM 0.14 0.0 0.00 2.0 0.60 rain and freezing rain yesterday until early afternoon. Little to no ice accumulations other than a light glaze from evening before. Continued steady melting of snow pack from latest storm just as another is bearing down on WNC.
2/4/2010 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 1.0 0.30 Yard still mostly covered with a few bare patches starting to show. Still enough to record a snow depth as more than 90% of yard is still covered with some snow and ice from last Friday's storm. Another arrives tonight as the cold air is place and the gulf continues to be open for business.
2/5/2010 7:00 AM 1.14 2.0 0.56 3.0 1.09 Snow, then sleet, followed by freezing rain by daybreak mixed with occasional snow and sleet. Its a mess. Would be more snow accumulations if I woke up in middle of night and measured a few times but it ws likely packed down a bit by sleet and ice. Amount in yard is an average given that new prcip covered old and the bare spots. Core precip is high due to rain being locked up in it as it filters down to the ground-or that is what I am assuming.
2/6/2010 7:00 AM 0.74 T T 1.0 0.42 Freezing rain gave way to mostly rain with occasional flakes of snow or slet pelletts. Temps warmed to 36 yesterday as a long, steady, cold rain defined the weather. Last night became very foggy and held steady at 33. Snow possible today. Melted core from snow on ground is high I believe because of rain being trapped in what is left on the ground.
2/7/2010 7:00 AM 0.02 T T 1.0 0.40 Snow and rain showers yesterday AM, followed by a few flurries in the afternoon and evening. Snow coverage is an average around the yard. Some bare spots followed by other areas that are shaded and deeper.
2/8/2010 7:00 AM T T T 1.0 0.30 Few snow flurries floating in the air in the AM after yesterdays observation period. Temps did not creep much above freezing at all yesterday.
2/9/2010 7:00 AM T 0.0 0.00 0.5 0.20 Light Drizzle just about 30 minutes before observation time. Potential snow to follow. Significant melting in yard taking place but some areas are still covered by more than 3-4 inches. Snow coverage amount is strictly an average.
2/10/2010 7:00 AM 0.03 T T T T Light rain yesterday afternoon. A fe flurries in the early AM before observation time. Snow coverage from earlier storms about gone from yard but still spots with coverage at this time.
2/11/2010 7:00 AM 0.01 0.2 0.01 T 0.01 Light snow flurries through most of the day with dangerous winds (gusts over 50 mph). More concentrated light snow showers overnight.

2/14/2010 7:00 AM T T T 1.0 0.11 Snow flurries on and off through early afternoon, followed by another light snow shower late last night/early AM. Enough to coat surfaces about a flake thick but not enough to call .1 inch.

3/2/2010 7:00 AM 0.05 0.5 0.05 0.5 0.05 Light snow developed overnight in early morning hours leaving a slight dusting by 5 AM. By 7 AM a half an inch. Classic 10:1 ratio snow to water ratio. Looks to snow most of the day.
3/3/2010 7:00 AM 0.52 7.3 0.52 6.0 0.42 New Snow amounts added to half inch yesterday give a storm total of 7.8 inches which takes me over 40 inches for the season. More light snow flurries at observation time and afterwards to be recorded in tomorrow's report.
3/4/2010 7:00 AM T T T 2.5 0.32 Light snow flurries yesterday AM through about 10:30. Few flurries overnight. No real accumulations. Significant melting yesterday. Should be more today and tomorrow. Typical of a near spring storm in WNC.
3/5/2010 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 T T Significant melting yesterday. More than half of the yard is now clear of snow. Should be more melting today and tomorrow as temps warm in lieu of high pressure. Total snow for season stands at 40.1-most since winter of 1968-69.
3/6/2010 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 T T Some snow remains in shaded parts of the yard. Trending towards dryer, warmer weather over the next few days. Acting like Spring-wary of one more winter blast in the next few weeks.
