10/26/2010 8:00 AM 0.02 M M M M Don't know when rain fell. Monday, 10-25-10, I forgot to submit my report in a timely manner. I tried to submit it around 11 PM and got an error message saying something along the line of must be an hour past time report taken. I did not understand the error message, but I put 10-24-10 and it took it. The rain fell on night/early morning of the 25 just past midnight. So, this is to alert you of the problem I had and hopefully will be posted to the right date. Thanks Mike Fulton

7/14/2011 8:00 AM 0.47 M M M M RAIN!! Thunder woke me up at 2:28 AM and rain started at 2:33 AM. Not hard rain, just gentle and solid sounding rain. Don't know how long or if the intensity picked up cause I went back to sleep. But considering the temperatures on the 13th was 103 degrees, this is refreshing.
7/15/2011 8:00 AM 0.42 M M M M More rain during the morning hours. Steady light rain until 11:30 AM. Clearing out in the afternoon and becoming hot and humid. Very little wind during the afternoon hours.

8/30/2011 8:00 AM 0.01 M M M M Trace. Sprinkling started about 8:10AM lasted about 20 minutes. Rain so light that the drops were seen on the sidewalk but no accumulation to cover the sidewalk because the drops would evaporate so quickly. I could observe a drop or two off the roof, but even that was spotty. After the moisture, checked the rain gauge and found only .01.
