9/19/2015 10/05/2015 7:00 AM 17 1.00 M M Exactly an inch of rain in gauge upon return from two week's absence.
10/15/2015 10/20/2015 7:00 AM 6 0.11 M M I actually measured this multi-day precip yesterday (Monday, Oct. 19) at 4 p.m. as 0.11 inch and emptied the gauge, but forgot to post. A few light sprinkles this morning between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. report time added only a Trace. Dark clouds everywhere, and more rain expected later today.
12/11/2015 12/19/2015 7:00 AM 9 0.93 4.0 M All this is from the 7 1/2 inches of snow we had here last weekend. I finally melted and measured the snow in and atop rain gauge.
1/8/2016 1/09/2016 7:00 AM 2 0.28 3.0 3.00 Multiple snows over past two days. About 3 inches on ground, depending on location, some places less some more. Total melted precip in gauge 0.28. Looks like the last inch came this morning.

6/1/2016 6/06/2016 7:00 AM 6 0.53 M M I was told it as pouring last night (around 10 p.m.) while I was flying home from a trip, so assume most of the precip if not all was from then.
7/22/2016 7/30/2016 7:00 AM 9 0.27 M M 0.07 inch of the full-week accumulation came later yesterday afternoon.
