11/4/2013 7:00 AM T M M M M Gorgeous still morning ; clear sky. Scattered showers yesterday between 0930 and 1030, but didn't quite make .01 in the gauge.
11/5/2013 6:45 AM 0.23 M M M M FINALLY some rain again! Started with light showers at 0215, then developed into vicious winds, heavy rain and a little sleet between 0400 and 0545, when it was pretty much over. The heavy rains came in bursts of only 5 minutes or so at a time. I didn't see any significant ice coming down, but I could hear it on the windows, driven by the wind. Overnight low only 43.
11/6/2013 7:00 AM 0.05 M M M M What a mixed day. High winds in the morning; very light showers and a little sleet blew over the mountain top off and on all day, but did not register at all in the gauge until a steady drizzle started at 1500 for a couple of hours.My measurement is best guess, as I had already removed the center vial for the hard freeze we were expecting. I poured all the collected moisture from the big cylinder to the little one to measure at 1800, but there were still drops and water stuck all around the inside of the cylinder that I could not get out. Even this morning, the inside of the cylinder walls are still covered with frozen drops! Anyway, my measurement was about .04, but I rounded up to .05 trying to account for all those drops.

11/16/2013 7:00 AM 1.20 M M M M Finally some decent rain, but the winds were horrendous! Rain started at 1437 and continued off and on with hard bursts until 0530 The heavy rain on the skylights was bad enough to wake me at least once an hour all night. Minor hail for one minute at 2328. I have found that when only using the large cylinder, it is easier and more accurate to simply measure the precipitation by weight (like snow) instead of pouring into the small cylinder and wondering how much is left in the drops that won't pour out. Overnight low 43.

11/23/2013 7:00 AM 0.04 M M M M Brrrr - yesterday started at 23F at 0700, dropped to 21, then stayed 22 degrees for the rest of the day AND night. The day was overcast with light blowing mist or snow crystals all day. Although there was no measurable ice accretion on objects, there was an ice coating on the south walls of my rain gauge (inside and out). The precipitation I reported is the 9g of moisture left after I melted the outside ice and dried the cylinder. This morning there is heavy frost but no current precipitation or sign of overnight snow. Overnight low temp and current temp remains at 22F.
11/24/2013 7:00 AM 0.32 2.9 0.00 2.9 0.00 Cold continues- 23 deg all day. Light snow started before 0800 lasting about 2hrs without much accumulation, maybe 1/10", then nothing for rest of day. No significant wind at any time. Woke to calm steady moderate snowfall. Did have to melt light ice coating from south side of gauge before I could weigh the snow. Overnight low 14F. Edited snow depth to correct rookie ruler reading error.
11/25/2013 7:00 AM 0.04 0.1 0.00 3.0 0.00 Virtually no significant accumulation throughout the day, just occasional light flakes. Woke to light snow. Overnight low 22.
11/26/2013 7:00 AM 0.02 0.8 M 3.0 M Steady snow fall in the AM accumulated .8" by 0925 when it was pretty much over. Temps rose above freezing for a while and all this new light powder was gone by end of day. Snow board was bare at 0700 - precip was measured by weight from gauge. Overnight low 20.
11/27/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 M Clear, Cold and calm this morning. Yesterday's high was in the mid-upper 40s, so we had a lot of melting. Current coverage seems to be about 75%, and my best estimate of total now left is about 1". Overnight low 22.

12/5/2013 7:00 AM 0.03 T M M M Savage winds finally abated last night - woke to light dusting of snow at daybreak, but only sticking to grasses due to high temps over the past few days. Precip measured by weight from gauge. Overnight low 30 and still falling at 0700.
12/6/2013 7:00 AM 0.25 2.2 M 2.0 M Snow started around 1400 for about 2 hours (.4" accumulation), then nothing significant until night. Snow is powdery snow 'balls'. Skies clear over the mountains this morning and only gentle breezes. Overnight low 22.

12/9/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Moderate temps and winds today, lots off clouds boiling over the Sacramento mountains after 0630, but nothing forming up on this side. Still about 1/2" average snow on ground, but this mobile app will not allow that entry. Overnight low 30.
12/10/2013 7:00 AM T T M T M Very brief snow shower around noon. Remaining snow from last storm sparse in the open and patchy under the trees. Overnight low 16.
12/11/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Still lots of snow cover in the forest, but probably not averaging 1/2" when considering the bare open areas. Overnight low 22.

12/13/2013 7:00 AM 0.35 T M T M Rain started at 0900 and continued off and on until around 2200, then a break until around 0300. There was a light dusting of new snow on the ground at 0700, and surprisingly, despite all the rain and higher temps, there is still noticeable snow on the ground from the last storm too. Overnight low 33.
12/14/2013 7:00 AM 0.10 0.3 M T M Heavy snowfall for a while just after 0700 - the snow was very light but resembled small hail balls more than snow flakes. Quick accumulation, but it was all gone by mid day. Significant winds most of the day. Still some old patches of snow under the trees. Overnight low 27.
12/15/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Still patchy snow under the trees - based on past experience, some traces will probably remain all winter, even if we rarely get significant additional, so I will just continue reporting T for total snow until we get a change. Overnight low 24.

12/22/2013 7:00 AM 0.16 2.4 M 2.5 M Good snow fall in the AM between 0800 and 1030 - accumulation at that time was 1.1". The temps climbed to a few degrees above freezing for most of the day, and even though we had recurring snow flurries throughout the day, it was melting faster than it was falling. By evening the snow board was still bare. Woke to mild snowfall and new accumulation of 1.3" by 0700. The snow has stopped for now, but skies are still leaden, so hoping for more to come before this moisture clears the area. Overnight low 23.
12/23/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 M Sadly we did not get any further precip yesterday. Overnight low 21.
12/24/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M Warm temps and sun are melting the new snow fast out in the open. Since I have a lot of forest and hills, it becomes real hard to estimate actual average of total remaining snow. Looks like our "white" Christmas is really more of a "mottled" Christmas now. Overnight low 20.
12/25/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M Melt-off continues, but the forest floor is pretty much still covered. Guessing that average cover depth is still .5". Overnight low 22.

3/16/2014 7:00 AM 0.14 2.5 M 2.5 M WOW! One hack of a late season storm. Light snow started about 1500. Didn't amount to anything until around dark, then really heavy blowing snow with big wet flakes - looked like a blizzard at times. By 2200 we had around 2" already on the ground. Very hard to tell how much we actually got since the ground has been warm for a long time now and it is obviously melting fast. best estimate is that we STILL have about 2.5" on the ground this morning. Even my water number may be low - for the first few hours I still had the funnel on the gauge, so with the very gusty shifting winds, a lot of the early accumulation probably just blew out. Overnight low 25.

Just barely - only saw a few flakes off and on for about an hour starting at 1100, but it was enough to see spots on my windshield as they melted. cloud cover was moving through fast, and it was never really heavy.

4/27/2014 7:00 AM 0.03 M M M M Really vicious winds all day, but they abated quite a bit at night. Short rain started about 2230. Although I did not get up and observe it, there was some hail - probably about rice size from the tiny indentations on the hail pad. I will fill out the hail report shortly. Strange thing though - the funnel on the rain gauge had a rather large ice plug in it this morning, big enough to probably raise the measurement to at least .05". I did NOT include this ice in the measurement because it did not make any sense - the overnight temps never got below 36, and most of the night stayed above 40, so where did the ice come from? If it was a hail pile that melted together into a plug down in the funnel, why did it not just keep melting? How did it congeal into a solid ice plug if the temps stayed that far above freezing? The water in the bottom of the tube was NOT frozen.
4/28/2014 7:00 AM T T M M M Snow flurries for about an your around mid day - no accumulation of any type. Winds remained pretty bad, but not near what they were the day before. Overnight low 45.

Brief decent rain for about 5-10 minutes starting at 1745 that started with just one minute of light hail (largest was pea size). Nothing significant after that - if anything fell overnight at all it was just light mist since we heard nothing on the skylights.

The rain continued at moderate level until 1315 when it picked up dramatically and the hail started again. The hail and hard rain was continuous for another 20 minutes when everything finally started to slack off. Significant flooding and erosion from the hard rain over a short period of time that just did not have a chance to soak in. I got more water in my dry stock tank from this one short rain than I did from ALL the rain last year! Overnight low 52

Interestingly, it all seemed to be centered either right at our house or maybe South and West of the house (up the ridge above the hollow, towards Sierra Blanca). Rain tanks on the back side of the house picked up about 200 gallons, but the big tanks on my shop just about 40 yards North of the house only added about 100 gallons, despite at least double the collection area. The 6,000 gallon tanks at my barn, about 150 yards NE of the house and lower in the hollow, added no additional water despite an even larger collection area than the shop tanks. Overnight low 56.
7/15/2014 7:00 AM 0.21 M M M M All from very light and broken showers starting around mid day and even continuing a bit at daybreak. Fairly disappointing - I was in Ruidoso around noon when it started raining good there, and even saw very significant flooding and SUPER heavy rains on NM 37 between about mile markers 2-4 (only a couple of miles SE from my house), but those big rains just did not cross over to us. We watched as the Capitan Mountains were complete obscured by the hard rain for several hours, but we never got our share. Overnight low 56.

7/28/2014 7:00 AM 0.37 M M M M Gauge checked at exactly 0700, and steady rain continues. Light rain started around 0230 and has been fairly steady since then - a good slow and soaking rain. Radar and visual observation shows that it is quite a bit heavier to the East and NE where the Capitan Mountains are totally obscured. As usual with Monsoon rains, our little hollow is located right at the southern edge of a little pocket where the main rains flow around both east and west sides - watching the radar for the past few hours has shown almost a knife-edge cutoff right on the northern edged of the rain that seems to always form the pocket anywhere from the ridge on the south side of our hollow to the edge of the mesa above Nogal. More often than not, the southern edge of the pocket seems to be right at Juniper Springs Road on the West side of NM 37. This morning it seems to be pushed north by about a mile, allowing us to share in some of the rain! Overnight low 56.

The current conditions contributed to a most magnificent sight: The entire sky is overcast except for a thin strip immediately above the Capitan Mountains. Around 0630 the rising sun shone a thin shaft of bright light through this thin gap and a "V" notch formed by the east end of the Capitans and the east ridge of our hollow. This shaft of light bore past the south edge of our house and illuminated the junipers and pinions outside our bedroom window like a spotlight, with all else beyond these first few trees still in relative dark. Over the southwest ridge of the hollow and directly above where this shaft of light was hitting the trees shown two huge bright rainbows! This beautiful phenomenon only lasted about 5 minutes and then the gloom from the overcast enveloped all. What a wonderful start to the day, along with some much needed rain! Overnight low 60.
8/23/2014 7:00 AM 0.03 M M M M What a disappointing day! We have been getting very little moisture from this monsoon season - I even had to start watering the garden again, and my rain tanks are less than half full. Yesterday was promising, from both the forecast and the cloud cover, but even though it spit off and on all day, we never got enough to get anything really wet! Overnight low 52.
