10/12/2011 6:50 AM 0.03 M M M M It was windy and cloudy this morning with lightning in the distance. At this time, a few sprinkles were already falling with more on the way.
10/13/2011 6:50 AM 0.05 M M M M We heard thunder most of the evening as there were several storms that popped up nearby. Overall, 0.09 is a pitiful showing for a rainy couple of days in the area. The full moon was beautiful this morning!

10/18/2011 6:50 AM 1.00 M M M M It rained most of the night and was still wet and gloomy this morning.
10/19/2011 6:45 AM 0.01 M M M M It was cold and windy this morning. The rain today was likely from the residual sprinkles we had right after I took the reading yesterday morning. We took the plants in last night. It didn't quite reach freezing last night but it was close and it will probably happen tonight.
10/20/2011 7:05 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M It was very cold this morning, but I'm not sure it got down to freezing. It certainly wasn't a hard freeze and the fall-blooming plants in the front of the house seemed as happy as ever.
10/21/2011 6:45 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M The data logger recorded 31F last night, but it was a very pleasant 60s or so by the afternoon. The few tomatoes we had left were frozen out the night before last and this one was even colder.
10/22/2011 7:35 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Clear and cool this morning.
10/23/2011 12:10 PM 0.00 0.0 M M M It is a wonderfully warm and breezy day again today! I have noticed few plants that have been affected by the cold other than our garden tomatoes. But, today, I noticed that the lizard's tail in the pond basin had all turned brown, save for one individual that is very near the water's edge.
10/24/2011 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M A bit of fog this morning. Venus and the crescent moon were stunning just before sunrise!
10/25/2011 11:00 AM T M M M M I'm not sure where this trace of water originated since I don't think it rained. It could have been from dew or fog earlier in the morning.
10/26/2011 6:50 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M It was very windy and warm yesterday.
10/27/2011 6:50 AM 0.02 M M M M Still cold, windy, and cloudy this morning. The pavement was wet in a few places, but it just didn't rain much more than some drizzle and sprinkles.
10/28/2011 7:00 AM T M M M M This was undoubtedly some dew that collected from the paltry rain we received in the last 48 hours.
10/29/2011 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Frost on rain gauge this morning. Very cool but calm and clear.

11/4/2011 6:40 AM 0.02 M M M M This rain was from early yesterday morning and was nothing more than mist and sprinkles. At this time, the sky was still dark and the stars and Venus were shining brilliantly. To the east, I could see the very beginning of the sky turning gray in preparation for the sunrise.

11/7/2011 6:48 AM 0.96 M M M M Rain started yesterday evening, perhaps around 8pm, and continued most of the night, I would imagine. It never rained hard, but the amount was significant. The temperature, even this early in the morning, was very warm and pleasant.
11/8/2011 6:58 AM 1.11 M M M M Rain fell much of the night and was still falling lightly at dawn this morning. It looks like another band will be coming in during the day with a chance of thunderstorms later in the afternoon. Finally!
11/9/2011 6:47 AM 0.65 M M M M It was still cloudy and wet this morning, but the rain had long since stopped. The windy and cold had just started, however.
11/10/2011 7:15 AM T 0.0 M M M This was probably residual moisture from our recent rainy weather.

11/15/2011 6:45 AM T M M M M I believe this rain fell around 10pm last night. We could hear drops on the skylights after dark. Just a few miles south of the house, in Willard, it rained appreciably more.

11/17/2011 7:55 PM T M M M M This was from some rain and sleet that feel last night around dusk. The low last night was 24.

11/21/2011 6:45 AM 0.10 M M M M Cloudy and cold this morning (~38oF) and still wet, although it wasn't really raining.
11/22/2011 7:15 AM 0.89 M M M M Two ash trees fell on the house last night. The first uprooted from the soggy creek bank and took the other down with it. Fortunately, it was a controlled fall and the damage to the house seems minimal. We are still thankful for the rain, though!
11/23/2011 8:20 AM 0.06 M M M M This rain was the result of lingering mist and light rain from yesterday morning. It is cool, wet, and cloudy this morning.
11/26/2011 8:20 AM 0.08 M M M M Still raining as I took this measurement. More rain is definitely on the way.
11/27/2011 6:45 AM 0.53 M M M M Much of our driveway pavement was dry at this time but it was still damp, windy, and cold.
11/28/2011 8:30 AM T M M M M I don't believe additional precipitation fell after yesterday's reading. This was from residual moisture after Saturday's rain.
11/29/2011 7:10 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M The cold has settled in this morning. The chicken water contraptions were frozen.
11/30/2011 6:50 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Our low dipped to about 20oF last night. The water lines to the chicken pen are frozen solid. The water collecting tank sounds solid as well. I should have drained them earlier this week. I hope we won't find cracks and a ruined tank when it finally thaws!

12/6/2011 6:50 AM 0.01 0.1 M 0.1 M Snow was still falling this morning and showed no sign of relenting. Although this wasn't a huge snowfall event, the air and ground are cold and it's sticking well. We witnessed one accident and some slick road conditions on the way in this morning.
12/7/2011 6:50 AM T T M T M The snow was still falling at yesterday morning's reading and this is the result. There wasn't much new snow. Total snow on the ground amounted to probably 50% coverage, but less than 1/4 inch deep where it existed.
12/8/2011 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M No additional precipitation today, but it was in the low 20s this morning. Our spring-fed creek is starting to freeze over. Some patches of snow are still hanging on.

12/19/2011 6:55 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Just minutes after I took this reading, it started to mist and then to sprinkle. Yesterday, we burned the front prairie. Much of it burned fine but several patches were left untouched and most of the forbs were left standing.
12/20/2011 6:40 AM 1.24 M M M M We had a steady rain for much of the evening and into the overnight hours. It was still fairly warm (45oF) this morning but a strong breeze brought the windchill down somewhat. We're still grateful for the rain!

1/10/2012 6:50 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Cold (23oF) this morning but no frost.
1/11/2012 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M We had nothing but Spgfld, just a few miles to the south, received enough to make the pavement wet. Temps are above freezing this morning.
1/12/2012 6:50 AM 0.03 0.3 M 0.3 M It is bitterly cold this morning with a wind chill. Much of the snow that fell last night blew around on flat surfaces so the snow total is a SWAG estimate from bare ground in the prairie. There is also a sheet of backfreeze on the driveway pavement.
1/13/2012 6:55 AM T T M 0.5 M More snow fell during the day yesterday and it looked like a measurable amount but I could see no difference between the amount of my "melting water" and the combined measurement after the snow was reduced to water. Although snow is everywhere and amounts to less than 1/2", it probably rounds up to that even though there isn't a solid blanket of snow anywhere that I can see.
1/16/2012 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M I don't think we had any rainfall today, but the pavement on the main road was wet even up to 11am or so. I guess this was from a heavy dew as there wasn't a single drop of rain or any moisture in our rain gauge.
1/17/2012 6:40 AM 0.02 M M M M There was a fair amount of lightning last night and some rain drops were heard on the skylight. However, it was a pitiful amount of actual rain that made it to the ground!

1/25/2012 7:35 AM 0.42 M M M M It was fairly warm this morning. The rain started sometime after 11pm and was drizzling at the time of this reading. This rain will definitely benefit my winter weeds so I hope they took up the herbicide I sprayed a few days ago!

2/5/2012 7:30 AM T M M M M Drizzling yesterday and some last night. The pavement was still wet this morning in some areas. Much colder this morning.

2/7/2012 5:25 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Cold, cloudy, and calm this morning.
2/8/2012 7:25 AM 0.03 M M M M Although snow was predicted, it didn't get cold enough for it to stick. It was drizzling and misting for a very long time yesterday, so the small amount of precipitation was a bit surprising.

2/12/2012 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Very cold this morning. My digital thermometer showed 7oF as the low, data logger showed 10oF as the lowest low, which was almost certainly last night.
2/13/2012 6:30 AM 0.10 0.5 M 0.5 M Snow was still falling steadily when I took this reading. Willard starting school two hours late for high school. Most other schools in area are closed. The radar seems to be winding down but we are still assured that more is on the way.
2/14/2012 6:30 AM 0.13 1.0 M 1.5 M The snow had already started to melt, partially from a drizzle that wasn't quite freezing. So, our total snowfall depth was certainly more than 1.5" before the melting. From a cursory eye, it appeared that Spgfld had significantly more snow than our area.
2/15/2012 6:20 AM 0.10 0.0 M 0.0 M As I was leaving the house around 7am, I noticed the rain gauge had another 1/10 or so in it from a 10-min moderate rain. We have gotten used to so little rain at any one time. If we could just have a couple of hours of such a rain, it would help tremendously!

3/19/2012 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M A brief shower started just after I checked the gauge this morning. Low last night was almost 70oF. Unbelievable!
3/20/2012 5:35 AM 1.15 M M M M Still lightly raining. Looks like more is on the way but we haven't gotten nearly as much as a couple of counties south and west of us. It's almost like the storm is pretty much parked over that area of the country (between Tulsa and Joplin).
3/21/2012 7:00 AM 1.10 M M M M Last night at 6pm, there was less than 1/2" in the rain gauge. Most of this fell in the evening and over night. There appears to be more in store for today.

5/21/2012 7:05 AM T M M M M The rain gauge was completely dry, but we got a few sprinkles yesterday from a line of thunderstorms that developed just to the east and moved east. We listened to thunder for the better part of an hour during dinner (1800 - 1900 hrs).

6/1/2012 7:10 AM T M M M M It was still dripping when I took the reading yesterday. It even opened up briefly into a real shower for a few minutes, but there was barely a trace at all in the gauge.
6/4/2012 7:10 AM T M M M M Not sure if it rained more last night, but the gauge was empty yesterday and there wasn't a particularly heavy dew.
6/5/2012 7:05 AM 0.09 M M M M A few isolated thunderstorms popped up yesterday afternoon, one of them directly above us. It rained on us steadily for 10-15 min before moving on.

7/7/2012 8:40 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Thunder to the south and a tiny storm popped up and then disintegrated. Storms to our south and east yesterday, and south and west today. All appear to be moving away from us.

7/9/2012 7:15 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Thunderstorms to the south of Springfield last night, but none organized near us. It appeared that something was happening northwest of Stockton Lake while we were there swimming, but it didn't come down our way.

7/31/2012 7:05 AM T M M M M Some rain in the area. We literally had a couple of drops in our gauge and the ground seemed like something had happened but I wouldn't have called this even a trace event without the drops of water in the gauge.
8/1/2012 7:05 AM 0.11 M M M M Rain last night, ground a bit damp this morning.
8/2/2012 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M We saw several showers on our way home last night, but they were to the west and southwest of our farm. Amazingly, we could see the thunderstorms in Texas Co MO as we went out to look for the full moon. Unfortunately, those storms were blocking our view of the eastern sky.
8/3/2012 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M The western sky looks dark and the radar shows possible rain heading this way.

8/9/2012 7:15 AM 0.87 M M M M Most or all of this rain was from a thunderstorm that came through in the middle of the afternoon. Another line of storms was headed this way as late as 2130 hours, but it apparently dissipated before it reached us.
8/10/2012 7:10 AM 0.08 M M M M This was from a freak shower yesterday morning. At the time, we got almost exactly 0.08". When I checked this morning, the level had dropped low enough that I would have reported it as 0.07" had I not known better from yesterday.
8/11/2012 9:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M
8/12/2012 7:50 AM T M M M M Just a few drops in the gauge and the vegetation was just a little bit wet. Unfortunately, the overcast skies prevented us from seeing the Perseids last night.
8/13/2012 7:20 AM 0.13 M M M M A small thunderstorm came through about 2300 hours.
8/14/2012 7:10 AM T M M M M Light rain yesterday (as reported by Michelle). Only a few drops in the gauge.
8/15/2012 7:15 AM 0.05 M M M M This small amount of rain fell in the afternoon from a band of showers that moved through the area. Near dusk, another small shower came through but added very little to the total.
8/16/2012 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M
8/17/2012 7:15 AM 0.01 M M M M There was no rain at our house up until about 2000 hours. This rain must have fallen during the night.

8/31/2012 6:57 AM 0.74 M M M M This rain is the first wave from tropical depression Isaac. Last night, we went out around 1940 hours and it was still hot and humid. After about 10 min, though, the wind really started blowing and cooling the air. We expect rain throughout today and much of tomorrow before the storm moves out.
9/1/2012 7:00 AM 0.46 M M M M This rain fell yesterday. It was dry most of the night, but it is raining lightly again now.
9/2/2012 7:10 AM 1.00 M M M M I believe the remnants of Isaac are completely gone now. All of this rain was from wrap-around precipitation that started yesterday and pretty much stayed around all day. It was a very slow, soaking rain.

9/5/2012 6:10 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing in the gauge now, but there is lightning to the west and an apparent thunderstorm headed our way. More rain will be welcome!
9/6/2012 6:05 AM 0.01 M M M M This was from a brief shower that passed through yesterday morning. The real amount was probably closer to 0.02" (measured about 0.015") but an extremely hot and sunny day probably evaporated some moisture.
9/7/2012 6:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M A line of thunderstorms was apparent on the radar yesterday afternoon. When I saw it, the earliest image was just east of our place, giving me the impression that we got some of that rain. However, that storm must have formed at that first image and moved east as it wasn't even damp at our house yesterday evening and the gauge was bone dry.
9/8/2012 7:05 AM 1.12 M M M M This storm was accompanied by very strong winds that blew leaves and branches down all over the place. The bulk of this rain fell in 20-30 min at about 1600 to 1630 hours.
9/9/2012 8:00 AM T M M M M This was probably from the dew we got this morning.

9/15/2012 7:30 AM 0.69 M M M M It is raining steadily now. Last night (2200 hours), there was less than 1/4" in the gauge from the rain yesterday. Most of this fell this morning, I believe.
9/16/2012 8:25 AM 0.77 M M M M Rained most of the day yesterday. Still wet and cool outside.
9/17/2012 5:55 AM 0.04 M M M M Dense fog this morning. It's unclear if this precipitation fell as "fog" or actual rain last night.

9/27/2012 7:00 AM 0.03 M M M M Most of this was from an afternoon thunderstorm yesterday but we did see some lightning last night (around 0100 hours) and there was a bit of moisture on the ground that probably fell overnight.
9/28/2012 5:50 AM 0.19 M M M M Last night, there was less than 5/100 in the gauge so most of this fell overnight. Foggy and wet this morning before dawn.

6/2/2012 6/03/2012 3:45 PM 2 0.88 M M Much or all of this rain must have fallen today, perhaps even just a few hours ago. Some branches were down and the ground was still wet.
6/16/2012 6/17/2012 4:15 PM 2 0.30 M M Watching the radar from NE MO, it looks like this rain all feel mid-morning.
7/14/2012 7/22/2012 2:30 PM 9 0.05 M M Rain on Friday in most of the state. Presumably, this rainfall was from that event. Vegetation is noticeably more stressed than when we left for vacation.
8/4/2012 8/05/2012 3:30 PM 2 1.06 M M It sprinkled a few times on Friday, but it amounted to no more than a trace. This rain fell with a thunderstorm (or two) on Saturday evening.
