10/11/2013 8:00 AM 2.80 0.0 M 0.0 M Rain last 24 hours was heaviest from 8 AM to 11 AM and again during the last 75 minutes.
10/12/2013 8:00 AM 1.69 0.0 M 0.0 M Only light rain or drizzle of no more than a few hundredths per hour fell the great majority of the last 24 hours. However, a few brief heavier showers brought the great majority of the accumulation including a very intense downpour from 10:59 to 11:07 PM which brought nearly half the 24 hour amount of 1.69 during those 8 minutes. Event total of 5.07 so far hopefully will be further increased only slightly before skies eventually clear.
10/13/2013 8:00 AM 0.87 0.0 M 0.0 M Drizzle brought 0.01 before noon. Then after a long lull, showers, heavy at times, redeveloped after dusk and continued at times, mostly light, after midnight till 8:00 AM.
10/14/2013 8:00 AM 0.03 0.0 M 0.0 M Rain ended completely around 9 AM. This "encore" of the preceding overnight appears to be the finale from the remnant low and moisture of former Tropical Storm Karen which began four days earlier, stalled along the Middle Atlantic coast, and brought a total of 5.97 over several heavy rain episodes which more than made up for the approximately 5-inch deficiency which accrued during August and September.

2/14/2014 7:00 AM 1.37 5.0 M 10.0 2.72 Mix of snow sleet and rain became all rain and continued intermittently till 4:00 PM bringing another 0.34 which included 0.8 snow. Beginning with a thunderstorm around 4:00 PM, rain changed to sleet then become heavy then tapered and ended late in the evening. This episode brought pack of dense slush of depth 4.2 which melted to 1.03. Core sample of total storm yielded 2.72 which would leave 1.35 for yesterday's precipitation. Thus, I suspect yesterday's 1.03 was an under-catch because much of that snow was powder and blowing at times and will thus be adjusted from 1.04 to 1.35. This would assume the rain was absorbed by the antecedent snow. Storm total: 2.72 precipitation, 16.6 snow/sleet which already compacted to a depth of 10.

Start Date End Date & Time Duration in Days Precipitation Snow Depth Snow Depth SWE Notes
9/1/2014 9/03/2014 8:00 AM 3 1.99 0.0 M Gauge contained 1.64 as of dusk last evening. An additional 0.35 accumulated after that. Otherwise, daily distribution is difficult as rainfalls were highly variable in the local area as evidenced by the numerous CoCoRaHS and mesonet stations which reported mostly much much less total rainfall than here. The exception was Severn 1.5 SSW (MD-AA-51) which had a three-day total of 1.91, and thus might be the best estimate of daily distribution for here. Numerous showers and thunderstorms, including few brief intense downpours, moved though between 5 PM and midnight. The first of them, around 5 PM, was quite gusty. I arrived back home shortly after this storm.
