I did not take any measurements, but obviously we had no melting, and stronger winds yesterday blew the snow so we have bare ground and deeper drifts. I do not think we got any additional snowfall.

Sorry, no actual measurements again. I am sure we had some settling and some evaporation under yesterday's sunny skies, but drifting has made accurate measurements impossible. Total snow is an estimate.
1/9/2015 6:30 AM 0.10 1.0 M 4.5 M Bone chilling cold, zero (0) degrees F; 29.32 Hg; apparently mostly clear skies (can't see much); and a gentle breeze from the West. I give no guarantees on snow measurements. My gauge is still on a pole 6' off the ground, so I do not think it contains any blown snow, but am not sure of the accuracy because of the high winds all day. Everything else is an estimate. such as New Snowfall determined by 10 to 1 formula and the catch, not a core sample. Same with Total Snow - we had 3.5" and got 1" more.
1/13/2015 6:30 AM T T M M M Very cold, 6 degrees; 29.79 Hg; mostly cloudy skies; w/a light breeze from the NNW; and no frost. Sorry there are no total figures, but it was so windy over the weekend that it is impossible to get an accurate measurement, not even by averaging.
1/14/2015 6:30 AM T T M M M Bone chilling cold, -4 degrees F, but rising rapidly (up from -8 @ 6 am); 29.44 Hg; undetermined skies, w/a lifting fog (visibility about 5 miles now); calm to light air from the NNW; and a heavy frost accompanied by a heavy hoar frost. The trace of snow is from early yesterday as it was snowing lightly when I took those readings.

1/22/2015 6:30 AM 0.23 2.9 0.25 M M Freezing cold, 27 degrees; 29.46 Hg; overcast skies, w/a light fog obscuring visibility beyond around 8 miles; and light air from the SW. I am surprised at the water equivalency of the snow as it felt heavy when shoveling; although it is heavier than the catch, which would include some light drizzle. Total snow would not be much more than the new snow as all that was left was in natural drifts in shaded areas and plowed drifts. I estimate totals at 3" snow and 0.26 water content.

2/1/2015 7:00 AM 1.04 7.0 0.90 M M Freezing cold, 29 degrees; 29.03 Hg; overcast skies and snowing steadily, which reduces visibility to about 1/2 mile; and light air from the SW. Snow started approximately 7:30 pm, so we are 11-1/2 hrs into the storm. It is a wet heavy snow, and my gauge was full and may not reflect the true total. We had a very little rain or mixed precip. to start, but it was basically snow from the get go; although the gauge shows more than the new snow measurement. I am not sure what figure to use for total snow because it had been wind blown and there were basically just drifts left. Accurate, or not, this will become my total snow starting tomorrow.
2/2/2015 6:30 AM 0.48 7.5 0.91 14.5 1.81 Bone chilling cold, Zero (0) degrees F; 29.26 Hg; undetermined skies (they look to be clear); w/calm to light air from the NW. I took an average depth and took one total snow core sample, then I used yesterday's figures to calculate today's new snowfall. I had a 22" drift at the bottom of my back stairs, and it appeared to be about 6 to 8 inches out where the yard was really windswept.
2/3/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M 14.5 1.93 Very cold, 10 degrees; 29.23 Hg; apparently overcast skies, but otherwise unlimited visibility; calm air, last from the WSW; and a very light frost. I can't really explain why today's snow yielded more water than yesterdays unless I got into a spot where there was more heavy snow from Saturday's portion of the storm.
2/4/2015 6:30 AM 0.03 0.3 0.03 14.0 1.95 Quite cold, 15 degrees; 29.18 Hg; overcast skies, w/a light fog reducing visibility to somewhere between 6 and 9 miles; light air from the SW; and a very light frost. Either we had some subsiding of the deep snow yesterday or I am working out of a drift.
2/5/2015 6:30 AM 0.01 0.2 0.01 14.0 2.05 Extremely cold, -10 degrees F; 29.56 Hg; clear skies, w/a (nearly) full moon, and a light fog obscuring visibility beyond about 13 miles; calm air, last from the NW; and a heavy frost. I must be moving into a drift from the first snowfall as the total water equivalent has shot way up today, while the last two snows were light loosely packed accumulations, as noted by their water values per depth. And the temperature just dropped 3 degrees while I was typing my info.
2/6/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 12.0 2.28 Very cold 12 degrees; 29.29 Hg; undetermined but probably cloudy skies; light air from the SW; and no frost. I am at a loss to explain by total water equivalent values changing by so much every day, except to assume I am moving in and out of a drift from the first round of snow which was very wet and heavy compared to the second round and subsequent light snowfalls. Also, a reminder that I do my measurements by weight - grams/2 = WE.
2/7/2015 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 12.0 2.27 Quite cold, 21 degrees; 28.94 Hg; cloudy skies, w/a layer of high thin clouds, and a fairly dense fog obscuring visibility beyond about 1 mile; light air from the SSW; and a fairly heavy frost.
2/8/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 10.5 1.93 Cold, 33 degrees; 28.76 Hg; overcast skies, w/a fairly dense fog reducing visibility to around 3 miles; light air from the SSW; and a heavy dew/condensation. Although the snow has subsided in depth, it still retains it's moisture content.
2/9/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 10.0 1.78 Quite cold, 20 degrees; 29.26 Hg; overcast skies, w/a light fog obscuring visibility around 10 miles; light ait to a light breeze from the NNW; and no frost.
2/10/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 9.0 1.81 Very cold, 4 degrees; 29.32 Hg; mostly cloudy skies, w/broken high clouds; calm air, last from the NW; and a good frost. Although the depth of the snow is going down, it seems to be just compacting as it collapses under its own weight so the water equivalent remains high.
2/11/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 9.0 1.97 Freezing cold, 30 degrees; 29.09 Hg; overcast skies, w/a light fog obscuring visibility somewhere between 8 & 12 miles; a strong light breeze, gusting to a gentle breeze, from the SW; and no dew or frost.
2/12/2015 6:30 AM 0.02 0.3 0.02 9.5 1.70 Very cold, 7 degrees and still falling; 29.50 Hg; mostly clear skies, w/clouds mainly along the Southern horizon; a gusty light breeze from the NNW; and no frost.
2/13/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 9.0 1.72 Bone chilling cold, -2 degrees; 29.41 Hg; cloudy skies, w/broken to scattered high clouds, thickening towards the SE; light air from the West and a fairly heavy frost.

2/15/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 8.5 1.78 Bone Chilling cold, -4 degrees; 29.62 Hg; cloudy skies; w/light air, gusting to a light breeze, from the NW; and no frost.
2/16/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 8.5 1.67 Bone chilling cold, -2 degrees; 29.35 Hg; undetermined but possibly clear skies; calm air, last from the East; and a very light frost.
2/17/2015 6:30 AM T T M 8.5 1.59 Quite cold, 16 degrees; 29.06 Hg; overcast skies w/blowing or light snow obscuring visibility somewhere around 10 to 12 miles; strong light air, gusting to a strong gentle breeze, from the West; and no frost.
2/18/2015 6:30 AM T T M 8.5 1.74 Bone chilling cold, 1 degree; 29.03 Hg; undetermined, possibly cloudy, skies, w/light fog and/or snowfall obscuring visibility beyond about 9 miles; light air, gusting to a strong light breeze, from the West; and no frost.
2/19/2015 6:30 AM T T M 8.5 1.87 Extremely cold, -14 degrees F, 29.44 Hg; apparently clear skies; w/light air, gusting to a light breeze, from the West; and a decent, but not too heavy frost. the trace of snow was what was falling at the time of my reading yesterday. It did not last long or accumulate to any extent.
2/20/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 8.5 1.82 Bone chilling cold, -1 degree F; 29.32 Hg; undetermined, but probably cloudy to overcast skies, w/a light haze obscuring visibility at around 13 miles (I can see the outline of the windmills at that distance, but not the lights); a light gentle breeze gusting to a strong moderate breeze from the South (w/a gust of 42 mph from the WSW measured over the last 24 hrs); and no frost.
2/21/2015 7:00 AM 0.02 M M 8.5 1.92 Quite cold, 18 degrees; 29.00 Hg; overcast skies; calm air, last from the South; and no frost. Yesterday's snow and accompanying winds have played havoc with my ability to measure snow cover. The old snow has a hard crust that I can walk on, and the new snow was blown into any low spots , and created new drift patterns in my yard. Note that the water value of my total snow jumped disproportionately today, even though it was taken very near yesterday's sample.
2/22/2015 6:45 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 8.5 1.82 Very cold, 11 degrees; 29.41 Hg; mostly cloudy skies, w/broken high thin clouds thickening to the South; light air from the WNW; and no frost.

2/24/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 8.5 1.77 Very cold, 7 degrees; 29.03 Hg; mostly cloudy, w/broken high clouds, but clear to the SE; a gusty moderate breeze from the SW; and no frost.

2/26/2015 6:30 AM 0.20 3.4 0.30 11.5 2.24 Very cold, 10 degrees; 29.26 Hg; overcast skies; light air, gusting to a light breeze, from the NW; and no frost.
2/27/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 11.0 1.85 Dangerously cold, -19 degrees; 29.65 Hg; clear skies, w/a light fog obscuring visibility beyond around 10 or 11 miles; light air from the NW; and a surprisingly light frost.
2/28/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 11.0 2.11 Dangerously cold, -21 degrees F; 29.77 Hg; partly cloudy skies, w/broken high clouds, thickening to the South and West, and a light fog obscuring visibility beyond about 9 to 11 miles; calm air, last from the WSW; and a decent frost. I must have gotten into a drift from the earlier snows which would account for the water value jump as the last snow was light and loosely packed.
3/1/2015 7:00 AM 0.01 0.2 0.01 11.0 2.13 Very cold, 9 degrees; 29.44 Hg; overcast skies, w/visibility obscured beyond about 9 miles by a moderate fog or falling snow; calm air, gusting to light air from the South; and a heavy hoar frost, which is thicker than the depth of the new snow.
3/2/2015 6:30 AM T T M 10.5 2.03 Bone chilling cold, Zero degrees F; 29.59 Hg; probably clear skies, w/a bank of clouds running along the Southern horizon, and a light fog obscuring visibility beyond about 8 miles; light air from the West; and a slightly heavy frost. We had a brief flurry yesterday with no measurable accumulation.
3/3/2015 6:30 AM 0.30 1.3 0.31 11.5 2.49 Freezing cold, 27 degrees; 29.00 Hg; overcast skies and a light freezing rain falling; w/a strong gentle breeze, gusting to a strong moderate breeze, from the SE; and no frost. The high water values are probably due to the snow being soaked with rain. Lost power just before 6:30 and I had to leave for work when it came back on (before all the electronics could get back on line).
3/4/2015 6:30 AM 0.11 0.0 0.00 10.5 2.48 Very cold, 8 degrees; 29.18 Hg; mostly cloudy, w/a general high haze giving way to scattered bands of slightly broken high clouds; apparently calm air, last from the SE (unless my anemometer and vane are frozen); and no frost. The board is covered with about 1/8" of ice and the top layer of the snow cover is ice.
3/5/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 11.0 2.21 Bone chilling cold, -5 degrees; 29.53 Hg; mostly clear skies, w/clouds skirting the horizons; calm air, last from the SSE; and a decent frost.

3/9/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 8.5 2.10 Quite cold, 20 degrees; 29.26 Hg; partly cloudy w/scattered high thin clouds forming; light air from the WSW; and a heavy frost.
3/10/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 6.5 1.67 Cold, 33 degrees; 29.15 Hg; undetermined skies, w/a dense fog reducing visibility to under 1/8 of a mile; light air from the SSW; and no frost. I am told we had a brief snow flurry on Sunday, but was not home to observe it myself.
3/11/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 4.0 0.82 Cold, 34 degrees; 29.26 Hg; possibly partly cloudy skies, w/a moderately heavy fog reducing visibility to between 1/2 and 3/4 mile; light air from the SSW; and a soft but heavy frost. I had thought the ground would be frozen from the deep cold we had, but the heavy snow cover must have allowed it to thaw as we have seen no flooding with this rapid melting.
3/12/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 1.5 0.80 Freezing cold, 30 degrees; 29.53 Hg; partly cloudy skies, w/the only visible clouds along the SE horizon; light air from the NW; and a very light frost. Yesterday saw a large depletion of the snow cover and water content. Snow cover has gone from 90 some % at over 6" average depth to around 50% coverage at nearly 3" average depth, and my totals reflect that change.
3/13/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 T M Cold, 34 degrees; 29.32 Hg; mostly cloudy skies, w/slightly broken high clouds; light air from the South; and no dew or frost. we officially have just a trace of snow, but a lot still remains where plowed off city streets and parking lots. For example, while my back yard is 98% clear and just has patches of snow about 1" deep my front yard, which is shaded and where I blew the snow off my sidewalks, is covered to an average depth of 1'. This might be enough snow to cover the whole yard (3/4 acre) to a depth of 1/4".
3/14/2015 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 T M Cold, 40 degrees; 29.15 Hg; overcast skies; light air from the NW; and no dew. Still many deep drifts and plowed snowbanks, especially in shaded aread.

It appears as though this started as rain, and the majority of the 'snow' is furz, so far.
3/24/2015 6:30 AM 0.25 2.5 0.31 3.0 0.36 Quite cold, 21 degrees; 29.35 Hg; undetermined skies (can't tell if they are clear or will have thin clouds), w/a light fog obscuring visibility beyond about 9 miles; light air from the SE; and a modest dew turning to frost.
3/25/2015 6:30 AM 0.22 0.0 M T M Cold, 33 degrees; 28.91 Hg; undetermined skies, w/a dense (possibly patchy) fog (ground cloud) limiting visibility (at my station) to around 1/2 mile; and a light breeze from the South.
