10/13/2012 7:00 AM 0.06 M M M M A couple of very light sprinkles during the day, with no measureable accumulation. More serious rain began just after dark. Finally relief from the extreme fire danger we've been experiencing.

10/16/2012 7:00 AM 1.00 0.0 M 0.0 M I was amazed to find the gauge at 1 inch precisely, but the bottom of the meniscus was on the 1.00 mark, water appeared to be on the verge of passing through the little notch in the top of the inner tube, but there was not a drop in the outer tube. A lot of rain for a 24-hour period here, but a welcome relief from the extreme fire danger.

10/21/2012 7:00 AM 0.04 T M T M A shower around noon dropped about 0.01 inch. More precipitation overnight brought the total up to 0.04 inch. Small bumps on the ice on the sloped surface of the rain gauge funnel suggest that some of the precipitation was frozen, as opposed to liquid precipitaiton freezing after landing ... that is, some of the precipitation presumably was sleet or snow, rather than freezing rain. Less than a millimeter of ice is present on various surfaces. I suspect the ice indicates that some of the earlier precipitation fell as rain and later froze, and the little bumps indicate that some of the later precipitation fell as snow or sleet.

12/17/2012 7:00 AM 0.85 1.4 0.41 3.5 0.75 I'm not sure how to account for these observations. The water contents of new and total cores was 29% and 21%, respectively, which seems high. I suspect there was significant rainfall sometime overnight ... perhaps early morning. Snow was falling at 2000 and the temperature was just below freezing. It sounded like rain blowing against the windows at 0530, but I never actually saw rain. Snow was falling at observation time. Snow everywhere was very "slushy" at observation time, which would be consistent with overnight rain. The temperature at observation time was +1C, measured with a one-point-calibrated thermometer.
12/18/2012 7:00 AM 0.15 2.0 0.20 5.0 0.92 Most of the new snow fell sometime between 1700 and 2100. The snow was wind-blown, which may account for the lower amount in the gauge.

12/27/2012 7:00 AM T T M 10.5 1.74 Tiny ice crystals were falling from fog after dark ... apparently a local effect.
12/28/2012 7:00 AM T T M 9.5 1.71 Another episode of a light "snow" shower just after dark ... enough to "dust"horizontal surfaces, but not enough to measure. Again, I infer that these are ice crystals that form locally as the air cools and moisture from diurnal evaporation condenses and freezes.
12/29/2012 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 9.0 1.84 No precipitation ... not even tiny ice crystals at nightfall. I can't account for the total snow melted core volume being higher today than yesterday, but I suspect much of the difference can be attributed to measuring depth to the nearest half inch ... a half-inch discrepancy due to the approximation would account for most of difference in measured volume.

New and total snowfall logically ought to be the same, but apparently snow on the snowboard melted faster than that on the ground. Presumably because of blowing snow part of the time, the gauge contents were lower than the total snow core melted value.

New snow core value reflects the slushy nature of the snow on the snowboard.

Start Date End Date & Time Duration in Days Precipitation Snow Depth Snow Depth SWE Notes
9/28/2013 9/29/2013 7:00 AM 2 1.00 0.0 0.00 Missed the daily report yesterday ... illness. This morning the gauge read 1.00 inches ... bottom of meniscus was closer to 1.00 than to 0.99 ... not a drop in the larger, outer tube. The 1.00 is a real reading, not just an estimate or approximation. There were frequent rain showers during the entire two-day observation period, some fairly heavy. The top soil layers are now saturated, and there is sheet runoff underway during heavy showers.
