10/6/2012 8:21 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Surprisingly no frost last night. Probably due to heavy cloud coverage and winds. It definitely was cold enough to have frost. Covered raised bed gardens are doing well and hopefully will make to end of season.

10/12/2012 8:24 AM T M M M M Light rain last night off and on until unknown time. Once again, it really cooled off after sundown.
10/15/2012 9:30 AM 1.09 M M M M Only one word for this weekend,rain,rain,and more rain. Probably wind should be included in this description. I made the mistake of opening a door in a polebarn yesterday and almost blew away !

10/18/2012 7:48 AM 0.60 M M M M It's great to see the normal fall rains falling unlike last year. Hoping to get out and rake yard today and pull out debris from gardens. Doesn't sound like there is much time before rain returns.
10/20/2012 8:30 AM 0.25 M M M M This amount of rain fell between thursday and today. It was not the total for one night. Considering the amount of time passed you would have thought the volume would have been much higher, but it wasn't. This morning was really chilly with light winds blowing.
10/21/2012 9:16 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Frost has finally passed the midpoint of backyard and reached sidewalk around house. I wished someone had issued a frost warning for last night. I unfortunately did not cover gardens close to backdoor. Front yard is still frost free for the moment.

10/28/2012 8:19 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M I have to correct my observation from yesterday. There was not only frost but ice on rocks around pond. Quite a surprise when I bent over to remove a leaf from the pond. Today is chilly with light wind.
10/29/2012 8:15 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Anther cold frosty morning with everything covered with frost. So far covered garden is surviving this cold snap. Can't complain though,the people in the eastern states are facing a lot worse than just cold.
10/30/2012 8:50 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Wind has really increased due to remnants of Sandy. It doesn't appear we will get any rain from the storm,just clouds and wind.

11/11/2012 8:30 AM 0.24 M M M M Sorry so late with report. I was trying to beat storm and check plants and pond in yard. Found more potatoes in garden so that was a nice surprise.
11/12/2012 8:10 AM 0.48 M M M M Brrr, winter is really here. Wind was incredible yesterday. Almost forgot to check rain guage and was surprised to see ice in tube.
11/13/2012 8:56 AM T M M M M Light snow flurries last night. Unfortunately, this also caused black ice and accidents galore on Elgin Ohare. This morning is simply cold with very little wind.

11/30/2012 8:25 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Another pleasant morning with our guardbird watching over the berries in the tree out front. Every year this bird or its relatives returns to guard the tree and its berries from any other sparrow or cardinal that tries to eat these berries. It is really comical to watch the determination of this rather bossy bird.
12/1/2012 8:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Our guard robin is back on duty today. So far it seems like we've gone back to October weatherwise.
12/2/2012 7:55 AM T M M M M Overcast and mild morning with damp sidewalks. Only drizzled last night with just barely enough moisture to say it rained. Guard robin is on duty again this morning.

2/6/2013 7:31 AM T M M 4.7 0.49 Light snow fell again yesterday without any measurable accumulation. Fish pond ice thinned around heater and areator. Read note on measuring snow, however in my case there is almost a acre of snow to measure so I will probably do it everyday.
2/7/2013 7:44 AM 0.24 M M 3.5 0.69 Freezing rain falling at a pretty good clip and everything is coated with a slushy ice. Snow is melting rapidly and I'm very grateful for a sump pump.
2/8/2013 7:34 AM 0.87 2.0 0.87 5.4 1.40 Worst storm I have driven in for years. I had an appointment for a relative in Mchenry yesterday that was like a drivers test on ice. The only safe speed was 20 mph. Even semi's were going that speed. What a nightmare !!
2/9/2013 8:55 AM 0.00 0.0 M 5.0 1.06 Bright sunshine and the great meltdown has started.

2/22/2013 7:50 AM 0.13 3.0 0.31 M M Storm started around 10:30 p.m. last night and ended sometime this morning. Much dryer snow than predicted,not much to get excited about,but welcomed relief.
2/23/2013 8:15 AM T M M 2.5 0.37 Snow flurries fell most of yesterday with no measurable accumulation.
2/24/2013 7:20 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.2 0.33
2/25/2013 7:45 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.7 0.30 Beautiful sunshine today with relatively mild temperatures and quickly melting snow. Not looking forward to tomorrows forecast.
2/26/2013 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Still have some snow on ground in areas where snow drifted. Other areas are melted right to grass and soil. Wind has really picked up speed. Had to rescue daily newspaper in neighbors front lawn due to wind.
2/27/2013 8:00 AM 0.54 7.5 0.89 8.0 1.03 Snow falling again. Started around 8:30 and is continuing. Most of snow on ground is really wet,typical spring snow.It is almost impossible to give accurate measurements on old snow due to drifting left from previous week.
2/28/2013 7:47 AM T M M 6.7 1.00 Even fish pond is covered with snow and ice. Very wet and slushy day ahead.
3/1/2013 7:57 AM T M M 5.5 0.92 Light snow falling this morning with no accumulation. Looking forward to the morning with sunshine and no snow falling.
3/2/2013 8:10 AM T M M 6.0 0.94 There was a great deal of wind and drifting yesterday,so totals are a bit off. Slight bit of sunshine peeking thru clouds feels warm.
3/3/2013 7:50 AM 0.00 0.0 M 4.5 0.89 Another sunny day with cold temperatures and virtually no wind at this time.
3/4/2013 7:15 AM 0.00 0.0 M 4.2 0.88 Once again we are waiting for next storm. This sounds fairly strong,but only time will tell. So far this morning we are looking at overcast skies with virtually no wind.

3/9/2013 8:05 AM T M M 7.0 1.40 Looks as though small amount of rain has fallen overnite.
3/10/2013 8:10 AM 0.45 M M 4.0 1.14 Evidently it rained last night,sump pump was running all night. Snow melt really speeded up last night.
3/11/2013 8:15 AM 0.64 M M 1.0 0.34 Rained off and on all day and night yesterday. Very little snow left and only in certain areas.
3/12/2013 7:10 AM T M M M M Drizzle and snow showers yesterday and overnite made for typical miserable weather in Illinois. Sunshine looks really inviting today. The only snow remaining is in drifts from the last three snow storms.
3/13/2013 7:20 AM T M M M M Another day and night of snow showers with no real accumulation. Ice on the fish pond means it really was fairly cold last night.
3/14/2013 7:55 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Still "Winter cold " outside with no sign of relief at this time. There also are quite a few snow banks remaining from snow plowers. This is quite a difference from last spring when I was watering tulips due to incredible dry conditions at that time.
3/15/2013 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Overcast sky with moderate temperatures so far today. Plants such as tulips starting to peek out of ground.

3/20/2013 7:35 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Cold,cold, and more cold !!!! This is the winter that is never going to end. Unless there is snow on the ground I always run out and grab the paper in my bare feet. The ground was warming last week and is now back to winter frigid.
3/21/2013 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Another cold day with clear and sunny skies.
3/22/2013 7:33 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Cold and frosty like November,not like spring.

3/25/2013 7:17 AM T M M M M The storm that hit Central Illinois missed us almost entirely. We did get snow flurries which are falling again this morning with little or no accumulation.
3/26/2013 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Still cold but less clouds and wind. Ground definitely feels warmer. Fish pond is ice free again.

4/4/2013 8:01 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Sunny with milder temperatures.

4/6/2013 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Overcast sky with windy conditions and hopefully a chance of light rain. Planted snowpeas and potatoes yesterday so definitely hoping forcast is correct.
4/7/2013 8:06 AM 0.12 M M M M Not much rain, but a great deal of lightning in thunderstorms that hit last night around 10:30 p.m.. Hopefully, we will have more of the same this week.
4/8/2013 7:05 AM 0.47 M M M M Nice spring rain which should help both planted potatoes and fish pond. This is the weather that was missing last year.
4/9/2013 7:32 AM 0.12 M M M M We had some rain this morning,but only light drizzle after that.
4/10/2013 7:35 AM 0.18 M M M M There has been quite a bit of thunder and lightning again with not much rain. Some areas received hail,but not us.
4/11/2013 8:35 AM 0.91 M M M M It is still raining and windy after 24 hrs. It looks as if this is going to be here for some time. I will finally get to see if my raingarden really works.
4/13/2013 8:00 AM T M M M M It is snow outside right now with no real accumulation. We had so much rain fall this week that the pond liner was lifted by the drainage. Now we have to figure out how to solve that dilemma.
4/14/2013 8:10 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Cloudy and still very chilly with light winds. It is definitely warmer than yesterday when we drained pond. When we positioned the pond last year we were in the middle of a drought and therefore put it at the bottom of a slope. With all the rain we received this year that proved to be a small disaster. We found the pond floating in a pond. It took most of the afternoon to pump and bucket brigade the water out of the two ponds. Hopefully the berm we built will help divert water away in future storms.
4/15/2013 8:00 AM T M M M M Light drizzle with much warmer temperatures this morning.
4/16/2013 7:30 AM 0.45 M M M M Rained off and on all day yesterday and newly built berm appears to be working. The real test will be tomorrow and Thursday. Supposedly heavy rain is due.
4/17/2013 8:10 AM T M M M M Short rain storm last night around 7:00 p.m. didn't last long. Looks like new storm will hit any minute.
4/18/2013 8:00 AM 4.63 M M M M I can't believe volume of rain that has fallen in last 24 hours. The fish pond is now floating again and full of muddy water. So many roads are flooded. Because our yard is on a slope we are draining well. I think once this storm is finally over we will be moving fish pond to top of slope.
4/19/2013 7:00 AM 0.21 M M M M Light snow flurries have been falling since early this morning. Evidently, we are going to skip spring this year and go directly to summer. We finally gave up on pumping out the pond and removed fish. Whenever ground dries we will move pond higher up slope in yard.
4/20/2013 8:10 AM T M M M M Looks as though it snowed lightly all night. Glad I covered my snowpeas.
