2/2/2014 7:00 AM 0.01 0.5 0.02 1.0 M Very light fluff for snowfall. Heaviest snowfall came shortly before the end of the "storm". Basic snow cover is still patchy and crusty.

2/4/2014 7:30 AM 0.08 0.8 0.09 2.0 M Noticed very light snow at 10PM. Snowing currently.
2/5/2014 7:00 AM 0.03 0.3 0.05 2.5 M "Snowed" off and on throughout the day, much of it ice crystals. Sundogs for nearly 30 minutes around 845. Although we're forecasted snow today, it's currently clear as a bell and calm as a tomb. I haven't a clue how to average what's on the ground. 5-6 inches of crust and new fluff is common as is the 1.5 inches measured on the ground which had been bare. I'm calling 2.5" total. What we have won't matter to flood statistics, so I'll just have to relax.
2/6/2014 8:30 AM 0.01 0.2 0.01 2.5 M Very light snow off and on in the late afternoon/evening.

2/8/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.5 M There's no reasonable place to take a core. Snow cover still a wide variety of depths of ice, crust and soft flaky snow.
2/9/2014 7:00 AM 0.01 0.2 M 2.5 M Just a bit of fresh snow off and on in the evening/night. Again, total snow is very general estimate of all the snow and ice patches.

2/11/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.5 M Total crust/ice/snow cover is quite variable. Maybe we'll get the forecasted rain tomorrow to smooth things out a bit !
2/12/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.5 M All the "new" snow melted yesterday. The 4-5" crusty patches are left. very irregular cover.
2/13/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 M 42 degrees at 630. (It's an old thermometer, however. Nothing fancy.) We've only had occasional gusts of wind come through. Snow cover is very patchy.
2/14/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M The main snow cover remaining is all the mini-drifts on the east side of the sagebrush and some of the bunch grasses. Many are still 4-5 inches deep.
2/15/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M 33 degrees at 530AM. There are too many patches of snow on the land to call nil snow coverage, so am claiming .5 inch.
2/16/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M Just beginning to mist at 7 AM. Storm is blowing in, but has not arrived. 42 degrees. Old snow cover only in patches.
2/17/2014 7:00 AM T M M M M Nothing in the gauge, but we received mist and then a little rain blew in. We even had a partial rainbow in the mist. The only snow remaining would not average out to a recordable amount.
2/18/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M No snow or rain. Some wind, but not the 50 mph gusts predicted. 30-35 mph tops and not much of that. Elk, though, in the evening. At least 50 !
2/19/2014 7:00 AM T M M M M At 0645, mist blowing in with the increased wind. I can just barely feel it on my face, so nothing is wet; nothing is measurable. Mere messengers. Up here on the bench, we've had very little runoff. The silty soil drains well and absorbs moisture quickly if given a little sun. Down below, on the county road, Mexican Creek is running and the borrow ditches of the road are full of slush.
2/20/2014 7:00 AM T M M M M Only a trace of mist/rain early yesterday morning. The wind dispersed the clouds.
2/21/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M A few good gusts, but mostly calm this morning.
2/22/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Currently dense fog and heavy frost.
2/23/2014 7:00 AM 0.10 3.2 0.10 3.5 M Very light snow fell most of the day, stopping sometime in the night. It measures over 3 inches currently, but most of it is air. Very fluffy. "Total snow" was averaged from 8 different measurements.
2/24/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.5 0.10 Two "freight trains" of wind came through between 5 and 6AM. It's very calm now.
2/25/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M The snow cover is very patchy. I can't really call even half an inch, but there is still plenty around in the lee of all the sage and bunchgrass. The mountains are shrouded; can't see the face or North Fork Canyon. It's a lovely, calm, very quiet morning.
2/26/2014 7:00 AM 0.03 1.3 0.07 2.0 M Light snow fell all day, starting around 8 AM. Snow cover is quite variable. 1-3 inches of fluff.
2/27/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 M Snow cover is very patchy and irregular.
2/28/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M Oops. Forgot my report today. System is coming in. Warm, calm and heavy thus far. Yesterday was very mild.
3/1/2014 7:00 AM 0.14 3.3 0.18 3.5 M Previous to this storm, the only remaining snow cover was bits of drift. At 7AM it is barely snowing, but looks as if it will soon recommence. Oh, boy. We just might have a green, well-wildflowered spring.
3/2/2014 7:00 AM 0.11 1.6 0.16 3.5 0.38 No snow overnight. Snow definitely settled in the open places.
3/3/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 3.5 0.12 The temperature warmed up during the night. This snow may not last long...
3/4/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 M 48 F at 5PM; still 40 at 1030PM. Much warmer than forecast. Snow cover patchy with scattered puddles of water, many of which soaked in. No real runoff up here, but I haven't been down to the county road yet.
3/5/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M 28 degrees at 5AM. Much of snow cover is gone, but bunch grasses and sage still have mini-drifts in the lee. Borrow ditches on county road full of slush and ice on this upper end.
3/6/2014 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M There is still some snow on the low ridges around us, but not here at the observation location. Hardly any run off here, but, again, the area west of site is putting good runoff into Mexican Creek. The wind is just starting up.
3/7/2014 7:00 AM T T T T M 33 degrees at 0700 and just a trace of snow fell in the night. Only a few drops in the gauge. 50-60 antelope came through late afternoon (the first we've noticed), so I guess spring is on its way. Mexican Creek was running red yesterday afternoon.
3/8/2014 7:00 AM T 0.1 T 0.1 M Got to hear one long rumble of thunder about 430PM. Run off slowed a great deal yesterday. Mexican Creek was clear again. Barely .10 of an inch of snow fell in the night. Only a trace of it was in the gauge. Stunning, calm, clear morning today.
3/9/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Mostly calm and clear all day. Occasional breeze, so the land continues to dry out. No run off here on the bench. Mexican Creek and the North Fork of the PopoAgia are both running clear.
3/10/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M A little wind in the night, but it's dead calm now.
3/11/2014 8:00 AM 0.19 2.8 0.23 M M Skies were mostly clear and winds calm at 1215AM. Snowing strongly at 8. Currently consistent wind (5-8 mph?)out of the north.
3/12/2014 7:00 AM 0.03 M M 3.0 0.26 Although it snowed until mid-afternoon, there was only a small layer of ice in the gauge to melt and measure and no new snow on snowboard. Old snow melted some and settled.
3/13/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 M Snow cover thin and patchy. No noticeable runoff yesterday. Mexican Creek running clear.
3/14/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Only very small, scattered patches of snow remain.
3/15/2014 7:00 AM T T M T M Snow is gone and the wind's coming up. I had to edit this as when I left to go to town, I noticed we actually did receive a little skiff of snow. It's long gone now, but I wanted to be accurate. It was hiding in little mini-drifts.
3/16/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M No snow, no run-off, a little green grass.
3/17/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Zero snow on the ground. It was 42 degrees at 5AM. I can hear the wind in North Fork canyon, but we only have bits of it here. I guess the system is coming in.
3/18/2014 7:30 AM 0.04 0.6 0.04 0.5 M Snow started around 1230PM while temperature was 45 degrees. Snowed 2 more times before 1030PM, but very little overnight. Currently snowing lightly.
3/19/2014 7:00 AM T T T M M Snowed lightly off and all all day, but no accumulation. A trace of ice is in the bottom of the gauge. The little snow cover we had yesterday at reporting time is gone. Snow cover exists only in the lee or north side of structures.
3/20/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Spring. Oh, boy.
3/21/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Windy yesterday. Most gusts were 20-30, but a few came through which were probably 35-45 mph. Wish I had an anemometer...
3/22/2014 7:00 AM 0.02 0.5 0.02 0.5 M Very light, fluffy snow fell in the night. Currently snowing with a light breeze. It's quiet as a tomb outside. Lovely morning.
3/23/2014 7:00 AM T T T M M A trace left in the gauge from yesterday morning's light snowfall. Light frost on the ground and picnic table. Calm and quiet at reporting time.
3/24/2014 7:00 AM 0.01 0.1 0.01 0.1 0.01 As forecast, we received a bit of snow in the night. Neither gauge nor core gave up a full .01, but, to me, it was more than a trace. Lovely morning. Some fog/low cloud in North Fork canyon, otherwise, mostly clear. 20 degrees F.
3/25/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Skies mostly clear. Very calm and quiet this morning.
3/26/2014 5:45 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M no precip in last 24 hours
4/1/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M Thin, patchy snow cover. Currently calm and 40 degrees. Total snow is averaged.
4/2/2014 7:00 AM 0.01 0.1 M 0.1 M Snow started around 8PM; was still snowing at 1030PM, with very little accumulation. The little snow cover we have looks more like heavy frost, but some is true snow.

4/4/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M late reporting. Observation time was 0700.
4/5/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Lovely day; no precip. Did have a little wind in the afternoon. There's no hint yet of today's possible rain/snow. Western half of the sky is clear.
4/6/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Literally, only received a few drops of moisture yesterday. Am hoping today's rain possibility gives something measurable.
4/7/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M We received a few odd sprinkles from the various squalls that came through. Not what I would call a trace.
4/8/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M The land is drying out a bit. Mexican Creek is running clear at fairly normal, low depth.
4/9/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M 50 F at 0700. Elk moved through yesterday. Readying one of the garden spaces, I found the soil just barely damp. Bring on more rain and snow !

4/11/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Yesterday was another lovely spring day with temps in the low60's. Clear skies to the west this morning. 40F at 0700.
4/12/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing new yesterday, but this morning there are clouds to the west. I guess the new event is slowly moving in.
4/13/2014 7:00 AM 0.34 2.7 0.27 M M Definitely mid-event. Bits of rain started around 8PM, first snow 930-10PM, snow starting to stick around 1130PM. Temperature was 32 at midnight.
4/14/2014 6:30 AM 0.45 6.7 0.42 8.5 0.64 Holy smokes, what a beautiful morning. Quiet, calm, wonderful light. I question my measurements, considering wind, ice, grass/ice underneath. Total snow cover is averaged from walking around taking 15-20 measurements. (8-9.5") I know the mountain snowpack is doing well, but this is a big boon for the land down below.
4/15/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Set the alarm to watch the total eclipse, but was foiled by the clouds. Oh, well.
4/16/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Light frost this morning. No new precip. Yesterday's wind melted all snow. Some moisture did go into the soil; I think a fair bit went straight into the air.
4/30/2014 6:00 AM T T M M M Very light snow has occurred recently. The gauge is actually dry, but there are true flakes of snow hiding in the grasses. It's not frost. Beautiful, quiet, gray morning. Temperature 34F at 0600.

5/6/2014 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M late reporting, but observation still from 0700. Sorry. Quiet and calm overnight. Maybe we'll get some good moisture from this system moving in...
5/7/2014 7:00 AM 0.52 0.8 0.15 M M .01 fell in a rain shower at noon, the remainder is from current event which started about 730 PM. Rain changed to snow some time in the night, after midnight. Currently snowing, 1/2 mile visibility, 32 F, winds mostly calm.
5/8/2014 7:00 AM 0.31 0.2 M M M Snowed off and on all day. I don't believe we received any rain, but temp was a few degrees above freezing. Currently 32; currently snowing. No snow on the ground at midnight. There may be about .2 now.

3/27/2014 3/31/2014 6:50 PM 5 0.28 0.5 M We obviously received precip during this period. Total snow cover is averaged to .5 inch as it is now patchy. It seems we received more snow that now is melted; I don't know if some precip came as rain. Snow board void of any snow or ice. Back to reporting tomorrow.
4/17/2014 4/29/2014 12:00 AM 13 0.02 0.0 0.00 Trace on 22 April, according to my husband. .02 on 27 April. I will see if I can enter all the other days of zero precip. If I can't, I hope you figure it out from this note.
7/17/2014 7/21/2014 12:00 AM 5 T M M My husband says there was a trace on Wednesday, 16 July. Otherwise, no precip while I was gone.
8/19/2014 8/22/2014 5:15 PM 4 0.13 M M .13 was left in the gauge at 5:15 PM, 22 August. I don't believe we'd received more than a trace, if any, for the day of the 22nd before 5:15. Rain began in earnest around 6 PM on 22 August and that will be included in my observation of 23 August. I am not sure if the dates I've entered will interfere with giving an accurate report for my 23 August report. If my dates here no longer show it: I emptied the gauge (for the multi-day report) at 5:15 PM on 22 August. Precip for 23 August observation at 7AM do not include the .13 multi-day report.
