10/6/2012 7:00 AM 0.42 5.0 0.42 4.0 M I forgot to take the funnel out of the rain gauge, so the wind only allowed snow to the top of the funnel. That melted to .22 of an inch. I'm reporting the amount from the core I took because the snow was about twice depth of the funnel, and the core is probably accurate.

4/10/2013 7:00 AM 0.45 3.0 M 9.0 1.22 New snow is only a guess. With the winds, it was really hard to guess how much new snow came down. I don't think that the rain gauge caught all the snow, but I don't know how to take a core sample that would be more accurate. The snow on the bottom is melting, even with the temperature in the single digits. At noon on 4/10, I took a core sample away from brush or any structures in the Front Pasture. I adjust the Melted Snow to reflect this amount.

4/17/2013 7:00 AM 1.03 14.0 M 14.0 1.03 Melted snow is from core sample. The Rain gauge melted to 0.57. The wind really blew hard, and I had almost bare ground and drifts over 3 feet deep.
4/18/2013 7:00 AM 0.65 5.0 M 18.0 1.68 Melted snow is the total core less yesterday's core pf 1.03. The new snow was probably much more than 5 inches, but that is all I could prove. We have an 8 foot drift out the Kitchen window, and there are lots of drifts around. My math wasn't very good, 1.68-1.03=.65, not 0.55 as I originally reported.

There was enough sun peeking through the clouds to melt the snow as if fell. There was snow on the ground at 7:00 yesterday, so I cannot use the melted core as the whole amount of today's snow.

9/27/2013 7:00 AM 0.55 2.5 M 2.5 M This is an exact measurement. There was over half an inch on the outside of the gauge, so the snow came in with lots of wind. Since so much came down as rain, a core would not have increased the accuracy.
9/28/2013 7:00 AM 0.09 T M 0.5 M All the moisture came down as snow, but I could not tell how much it was since it melted almost immediately. The total snow is a guess since I have a mix of snow and bare ground.
