Observation Date Observation Time Precipitation Snowfall Snowfall SWE Snow Depth Snow SWE Notes
10/1/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Returning from ABQ to Yah-ta-hey yesterday afternoon on I-40, I encountered "sprinkles" at MM 89(southeast of Grants, Cibola County) at 1:45 pm and again at MM 64 (Prewitt, Cibola County)at 2:08 pm.
10/2/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M
10/3/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M There is evidence of a "Trace" on my auto's back window but I don't know when or precisely where.
10/4/2015 7:30 AM T M M M M Precipitation moved in sometime between 7 and 7:30 am. Sporadic light rain now.
10/5/2015 7:00 AM 0.37 M M M M Serious precipitation began about 7:15 pm with heavy rain at 7:18 and again at 9:36 pm.
10/6/2015 7:00 AM 0.72 M M M M I wasn't home when the bulk of this hit. The yard is covered with silt (very slippery getting out to the gauge), neighbors'driveways are washed out and our unpaved roads are full of new gullies. Returning from Farmington about 11 pm, I hit a "puddle" on Hwy. 491 in the construction zone (which I couldn't see in the rain and darkness) which literally spun the mini-van into the opposing lane and covered it with muddy water.

10/10/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Here's the thing: I don't think there was any precipitation but there was liquid in the cylinder. I believe it is condensation. The metal roof was dripping water this morning as were the sides of my van, all of which I attribute to condensation, not precipitation. "Just sayin'..."

11/5/2015 7:00 AM 0.35 3.4 0.22 3.5 0.22 OOPS! I forgot to remove the funnel and the cylinder. I don't think I lost much, maybe .02 inches based on melted core value. There was .15" in the cylinder plus the snow cap on the top accounted for the total of .35". Misty rain all morning and then very brief rice-size hail at 1:19 pm followed by large, fluffy flakes at 1:27 and a clap of thunder at 1:28 pm. The bulk of the snow fell overnight.

Tuesday, driving back to Gallup from Grants, there were times when the "stuff" hitting the car and the windshield was very noisy, but I didn't recognize it as precipitation. I simply don't know when this occurred in the 48 hour period.
