12/9/2013 12/10/2013 8:00 AM 2 0.34 M M This was the water from the rain and sleet/freezing rain that melted on its own into the gauge. Some of this fell as sleet and froze the opening to the inner tube of my gauge. I hadn't watched the training vids on how to deal with frozen precip so I waited until it melted on its own. But now I'm trained and ready for winter!
