Observation Date Observation Time Precipitation Snowfall Snowfall SWE Snow Depth Snow SWE Notes
10/22/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Just returned from North Carolina - on vacation from 9-15-15 to 10-20-15. Found Rain Gauge had over an inch of precip in it when I looked in the back yard today. Will update precip totals upon receipt of precip only.
10/29/2015 7:00 AM 0.06 M M M M Light RW- at 11:00 am lasting 20 minutes. Better RW- at 6:10 pm lasting about 1.5 hours and another RW- around 1:00 am lasting about 20 minutes or so.
11/2/2015 7:00 AM 0.53 M M M M Had light R- shortly before 11:00 pm. Then R- began again near 2:00 am. Then heavier steady rain began 2:30 am and continued through 7:00 am. Hard to say when heaviest rain occurred. Actually surprised to see amount of total rain in gauge this morning. Looked at NAS Fallon - our precip times and amounts don't match up with theirs although the precip came into our area first from the west with a SW to NE configuration.
11/3/2015 7:00 AM 1.17 M M M M Don't know how this total is so much more than the base at Fallon had, but it is reflective of the time for this observation periods total. R- to R continued from 0700 yesterday until about 0115 hours this morning. It did not stop. Again Big difference from the base??? Also had snow lightly mixed in with the rain yesterday morning and in to the afternoon. Nothing noticeable, but you could see flakes off and on and also more apparent while driving with them hitting the windshield. More like a slushy raindrop. Temps were 39 to 40 degrees for this yesterday.
11/4/2015 7:00 AM 0.06 0.0 M 0.0 M Had R/S sometime after 10:00 pm or so?? Then had some snow stick to fence rails and cars - not much but obvious it was snow.
11/10/2015 7:00 AM 0.50 2.2 M 2.0 M Had Rain begin around 6:10 pm. R/S began about 8:30 pm. All Snow after 11:00 pm. Noted big difference again between NAS Fallon and my site. Have a branch with a some leaves well above the guage - will move and see how next readings compare. Not able to melt snow for precip - it was very very wet snow though.
11/16/2015 7:00 AM T M M M M Horrible 90 percent chance of R and S with 1 to 2 inches. Had one very light 8 minute shower at 12:55 pm. Total bad bad forecast with no updates after it was apparent the system had broken up and all but vanished. ????? Did have clouds develop east of us over the local mountains in the afternoon.
11/25/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing but wind after 1200 hrs and after frontal passage. Forecaster needs to read up on shadow zones associated with winds - This is where Fallon lies in this regime of things on windy days - 80 percent chance of winds yes -showers only when a very strong front with proper dynamics comes through and then it is a brief shower event with passage usually. Today will have a few showers - minimal winds today -
11/26/2015 7:00 AM 0.01 2.0 M 0.0 M Had snow begin at 8:05 am lasting 50 minutes. Another shower at 11:45 am lasting about 15 minutes. Total for first shower was barely 1/4 inch on grass and fences.
11/27/2015 7:00 AM T M M M M Had one snow shower at 3:50 pm.
12/4/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Pretty good forecast - shadowed out with strong S to SW winds most of day - no pcpn at all.
12/11/2015 7:00 AM T M M M M Another major rain-shadow event - over forecast for this area with too much wind vice pcpn percentage. Showers were pretty light and brief.
12/12/2015 7:00 AM 0.02 M M M M Looked like some light rain mixed in with small snow pellets which began about 12:04 pm and then got almost as large as a small pea after about 15 minutes. Also had snow mixed in with the larger snow pellets.
12/13/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Looked like might see something but everything petered out around Fernley prior to getting to Fallon.
12/14/2015 7:00 AM T M M M M Had brief RW- around 1105 hrs lasted only 20 minutes. Had some very light snow grains fall sometime after about 0100 or 0200 hours this morning. Not quite a 100 percentile chance of snow???? Did not observe time of falling SG- but saw them on the hood of my jeep (barely).
12/19/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing - still waiting??
12/20/2015 7:00 AM 0.03 M M M M RW- began at 1604 hrs lasting about 1.5 hrs off and on. Had more pcpn between 2200 and about 2330 hrs.
12/21/2015 7:00 AM T M M M M Had some light rain after 2200 hrs - lasting????
12/22/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing for this time zone.
12/25/2015 7:00 AM 0.03 T M M M Just returned from Tahoe - lots of snow their to about Dayton - then not much of anything from Stagecoach to Fallon. Had 1/4 inch of snow on the ground in shady area of front yard. Very dissapointing totals for snow after the forecasts that started earlier in the week. Don't know what pcpn fell or when, just have .03 inches added to rain gauge.
12/26/2015 7:00 AM T 0.0 M M M Few SP- yesterday afternoon - nothing worth mentioning. Better showers around the general areas to the E/S/N. Had 8 inches of snow at zephyr cove XMAS eve day.
12/28/2015 7:00 AM 0.04 0.6 M 0.5 M Had Snow start some time after 0330 hrs - woke to find 1/2 inch (a little more actually) on the ground, roads, and fences. PCPN amount may not be accurate as there was still snow on the top of the tube of the rain gauge. Unable to get to melt it down as I had to leave for most of day prior to checking pcpn amount. Will adjust total with pcpn totals for 12-29/15 reading a little later today.
12/29/2015 7:00 AM 0.05 0.4 M 0.5 M Had S- and SG- during most of the afternoon. Then had some S- and SG- after 0300 hrs. Woke with a half inch on the ground on the 28th that mostly melted and then in the early evening had almost another 1/2 inch accumulate.
12/31/2015 7:00 AM T M M M M Had SW-/SG- for about 5 minutes at 1554 hrs and then again a this morning from about 0530 to 0600 hrs.
1/6/2016 7:00 AM 0.01 M M M M Had a few light rain showers thru the day.
1/7/2016 7:00 AM 0.01 0.3 M 0.5 M Had about 1/4 inch of snow in the morning and then a few light snow/snow pellet showers during the afternoon.
1/8/2016 7:00 AM 0.06 0.6 M 0.5 M Snow began early in morning. Had a few showers in early afternoon.
1/10/2016 7:00 AM 0.01 0.1 M M M S- started around 6:45 pm and lasted till 9:10 pm. Then had a brief very light SW- last from about 10:05 to 10:35.
1/14/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Absolutely shadowed for the day. Had some clouds finally arrive about sunset but got nothing from them. The base said they had a T - woop- di- doo???
1/15/2016 7:00 AM 0.03 0.4 M 0.5 M Let the dogs out at 0300 hrs - no pcpn. Up again at 0630 hrs and found close to 1/2 inch of snow on the ground. Don't know if we had rain or just snow, but had a good amount of the snow on the ground which was very wet. Don't know why the rain gauge didn't show more appropriate amount of pcnp as the snow seemed to be very very wet overall.
1/18/2016 7:00 AM 0.30 M M M M Good Rain began around 0300 hrs lasting till about 0650 hrs.
1/19/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Had a 1-2 minute very, very, very light shower at 9:30 am. That was it for this period.

1/23/2016 7:00 AM 0.01 M M M M Had brief bit of showers in early afternoon. Very unimpressive WX event after local hoopla for this forecast failed to do as forecasted. Don't know time as we were out of town.
1/25/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Received nothing during this reporting period. Noted NFL did have a RW- - we did not during that time period at all.
1/29/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing for this period. We'll see about shadowing today??
1/30/2016 7:00 AM 0.45 3.5 M 3.5 M Don't know if we had any rain, but did observe horizontal Snow at 0330 hrs that lasted well beyond the 0700 reporting period. Checked rain gauge for very very wet snow value and still have more that I'm letting just melt. For now though, .15 inches of snow with about 3 1/2 inches on the ground. Will update pcpn amount tomorrow. Updated pcpn from .15 to .35 which is probably a little low from actual - did not melt snow for 1-30-16 but had good amount of water in gauge with little snow melt on 1-30-16.
1/31/2016 7:00 AM 0.25 2.0 M 3.2 M Not total for pcpn as rain gauge is now over .55 inches as of 0700 this morning. will update with a total total tomorrow as activities did not allow for time to do this. This morning, woke up to 2.0 inches of snow. Snow continued through 0940 hours during reporting period for yesterday-today. Had a brief shower or two during the day, but not at all like the base recorded - think they have an issue as it didn't snow during the afternoon here yesterday??? Snow continued off and on during reporting period so could not give a start or end time. Increased total pcpn as more liquid was in gauge after snow through the late night and into the morning again.
2/1/2016 7:00 AM 0.18 2.0 M 4.5 M Melted all snow in gauge to find a total of .88 inches of pcpn had accumulated since this snow event started 2 days ago. Had close to 2.0 inches of additional snow mainly come in a little in the morning through the day, but most accumulated around 4:30 - 8:40 pm which was mainly horizontal coming from the north. Total is absoluted accurate for all 3 days. Feel gauge at NFL is out of whack as they recorded snow when there was likely none. Perhaps snow melting was giving a false reading - don't know.
2/2/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.5 M No snow at all during period.
2/3/2016 7:00 AM T M M 2.0 M Had light snow off and on for several hours.
2/4/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.5 M nothing at all.
2/5/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nada today - will continue reports when we get weather. Most of the old snow on the ground has melted in the sunny areas. Do have about 1.1 inches of snow left in shady areas but not practical to consider as ground cover over all.
2/18/2016 7:00 AM 0.09 M M M M Moderate Rain began at 12:36 am pounding against west side of house loud enough to actually hear it inside. Winds blew like the dickens. Rain lightened up after about 25 minutes and lasted another hour maybe?
2/19/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M
3/5/2016 7:00 AM 0.06 M M M M Had pretty good shower start around 2150 hrs lasting till about 2310 hrs.
3/6/2016 7:00 AM 0.01 M M M M Checked NFL out and noted our winds seemed much stronger than what they recorded last night - blew my back yard around considerably knocking everything over. Had more pcpn than base again, seems to be the usual for amounts though. Have no idea as to when rain occurred cause of noise of winds. Let dogs out at 0200 hrs or so and no signs of pcpn, but then noticed cement was wet at 0600 hrs???
3/8/2016 7:00 AM 0.03 M M M M Had first light shower around 8:20 am. Had light showers off and on from around 10:00 am through 5:45 pm with light drizzle starting around 6:45 to about 9:45 pm (not sure when if it all stopped at that time).
3/9/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Had light rain or drizzle in early afternoon for about 1.15 hrs. Then had another light shower between about 5:00 - 6:15 am (not sure when this actually happened but had rain drops on windshields at 6:30 am.
3/11/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing yesterday - although the base showed pcpn during the early evening.
3/12/2016 7:00 AM 0.23 M M M M First showers was about 4 minutes long at 1:50 pm. Next one was off and on and started about 3:50 pm and was light. Then had very moderate rain start about 4:50 - 5:15 pm then lightened up lasting about 6:20 pm.
3/22/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing.
3/23/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Absolutely nothing in town - it all went mainly around us - more to the east and south.
3/29/2016 7:00 AM 0.37 2.5 M 2.5 M Had light rain begin about 8:45 with snow mixing in around 9:30 am. Went to Reno and returned with snow starting again around 2:30 pm which became mdt to hvy around 3:45 till about 5:15 pm or so. Noted major difference between NFL and my pcpn totals??? With strong winds from NW-NNW most snow accumulated on south sides of front and back yards. Very little near the N side of yard but up to 3 to 3.5 inches in some areas due to just drifting and piling up. 2.5 inches is a generalization for snow depth.
3/30/2016 7:00 AM 0.07 M M M M Initially light rain and snow that turned to all rain after about 20 minutes or so.
4/4/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Had a weak CBMAM develop over house and ENE-ESE of town. No T or lightning. Showers were fairly large drops but pretty light for a half hour.
4/9/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Brief shower for very light rain.
4/10/2016 7:00 AM 0.08 M M M M Had brief showers starting at 11:16 am, 3:20 pm, 5:25 pm and then our most obvious and meaningful shower was from 10:20 to 11:05 pm. Last shower provided bulk of recorded pcpn amount. Others were just enough first shower was nothing and the next 2 were just enough to get the road wet. All pcpn for most part was E-S moving WSW over NFL and around the city of Fallon. Noted forecast was a bit much for town while it changed considerably for today. 80 percent is usually a miss it seems while a 30 percent usually results in good showers for local area - hoping for this today.
4/11/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Forecast again missed city of Fallon. Wife said we had a short light shower around 10:30 pm or so. I was up at midnight and could not see any signs of any rain. Forecast yesterday bounced around from 30 to 80 percent again - yes for the base NFL, no for the town. Most of morning had thick low clouds moving to the N while no showers occurred during the entire day and came in from the NE across the base.
4/12/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing again - NFL got something the city was totally dry again.
4/23/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Another pathetic 80 percent forecast wiped out by shadowing due to the very strong winds we had during the forecast period. Read and learn Reno - winds like these seldom result in rain in our town. Radar showed some pcpn south and then some north of us - we are in that magic sucker hole once again. Better shot tomorrow with much lighter winds... enuf said.
4/25/2016 7:00 AM 0.11 M M M M Had light shower at 9:25 am. Then at 4:30 RW- began with T one time at 4:40 pm to the SSW. RW lasted til about 7:50 pm. Then at 2:20 am had another good round of RW- last till about 3:35 am.
4/26/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing in town yesterday at all.
4/27/2016 7:00 AM 0.05 M M M M Rain began shortly after 0300 hours and stopped just before 0600 hrs.
4/28/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nothing at all yesterday - looked like it was going to come in from the SW-W and then the clouds/WX moved W-SW away from town in the afternoon.
4/29/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Very light RW- from about 0900 - 0953 hrs. Another one around 1705 - 1750 hrs.
5/3/2016 7:00 AM 0.07 M M M M Not sure when pcpn fell - came home at end of weekend and found an additional .07 in. in the Rain gauge. Believe most of it was on Friday, not Saturday, but can not verify that. Had heavy rain/Tstms while camping in Fort Churchill area Friday afternoon. Checked with friends via phone and learned it did rain on Friday so expect that info to be accurate. Also noted the base NFL only had .01 in.
5/4/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Had 2 brief light RW- on this period. Updating data due to computer being down for last 2 days. First was at 2:00 pm lasting about 10 minutes and last was at 4:05 pm lasting about 10 minutes also. Both were very light and not steady for the 10 minutes.
5/5/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Brief light RW- at 3:57 pm.
5/6/2016 7:00 AM 0.08 M M M M Had light RW- at 7:15 am for 20 minutes, then again around 3:30 pm for about 30 minutes. At 4:33 Rain began and lasted for about 1.20 hrs with heavier moderate rain pulsing from about 4:42 to 5:05 am. Another light RW- happened at 6:40 am lasting about 17 minutes. Listed pcpn for period 4:33 to 6:57 as this was when the real weather happened - not just the light light showers from earlier in the day. Additional info - winds were hellatious in early afternoon - noted NFL had a gust to 60 mph - we too had something in that realm as no T was heard, but we definately had downbursts to the E and S-SW of home around 3:25 - 3:55 pm - winds blew the heck out of my back yard. Also - heard one elongated crack of Thunder this morning at about 4:28 am just a few minutes before the rain began - nothing else during the rain though - did see a flash of lightning to the south about 4:47 am though but no Thunder.
5/7/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Absolutely nothing for a 90 / 80 percent chance yesterday. Weather looked good coming from E to W but as it passed the hills to Fallon's E, it all moved about 15-20 miles N of Fallon as it's pcpn field reduced considerably over the S flank as it approached the city. Best forecast for Fallon is sometimes 90 or 80 percent chance with the same chance for no pcpn at all. The incredible sucker hole of NV.
5/8/2016 7:00 AM 0.12 M M M M Rain began at 7:15 am and lasted till about 12:10 pm - mostly steady for this period. Had another brief batch start at about 3:40 am lasting until about 4:30 am - pretty light for the most part. Rain began about 5:30 am and this rain continued past the reporting end time.
5/9/2016 7:00 AM 0.12 M M M M Unable to post this pcpn reading as we were out camping at the time. Had rain continue prior to beginning report period into the mid morning range. Wrote pcpn amount on envelope for the period and came up with amount indicated. Not sure of exact info, but believe there was some convective activity to go along with it.
5/16/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M
5/24/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M nothing for period.
5/25/2016 7:00 AM 0.08 M M M M Only pcpn was at 0710-0725 and very light - then off and on from 0820-1015 and very light again. Real showers began at 1600-1715 with 1 clap of T at 1622 hrs. This cell developed NNW of Fallon and seemed not to move for about 45 minutes then finally pushed off to the S passing mainly over the center of town and to the W of my location.Had more showers at 2030-2050 hrs and then 0228-0240 that was fairly light. Outside of these times don't know if anything else fell, don't believe so though. Indicating main rain event times for data below.
5/26/2016 7:00 AM 0.04 M M M M Had very light shower 0700-0725. Better showers from 1530-1640 and then 1930-2100 that were off and on. Best showers were around 0200-0315. May have been other light showers between 2200-2330, but not able to verify times as roads were already wet on street.
6/6/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Had brief RW- from what looked like the south end of a decaying CB - looked like a lot more RW north of town as it moved towards the city and then began a more Northerly track.
7/30/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M RW- very light starting at 7:25 pm and going for about 20 minutes or so. Had some larger drops, but by no means anything steady during the time. Also had dry TS starting at 8:28 pm with some good lightning moving from W - E right over town/home. Heard no more T after about 8:50 pm but did see a few flashes to the ESE-SE of NFL base. Did have some good winds with the Showers, but not much with the lightning.
8/22/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Nice bad forecast for yesterday - our 50 per cent chance was again zero for the city and local area - everything well E and S of us - nothing even close. Better luck for Monday - bad idea with a 50 per cent again though.
8/23/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Got 50 per cent of nothing forecasted again. Looked like it might do something in the afternoon but then everything died out pretty early - zero for both 50 per cent forecasted days.
8/24/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Had a brief 5 minute shower between about 3:00 and 4:00 pm. Big drops but not a lot. Don't know if it was forecasted but it sure beat the 50 per cent forecasted for the 2 previous days.
9/1/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Got some unforecasted weather yesterday - had T start at 1355 hours lasting for about 23 minutes or so. Moved from just south of town to the east of residence. Surprised the base did not pick this up at there was at least 6 good claps of thunder. Then about 4:04 to 4:15 pm had a real very brief rainshower with very large drops - no accumulation, but obvious rain - this shower band did follow the same direction at the thunder clouds and gave the base a fair amount of precip in a short time.
9/12/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Had brief shower between 4:40 and 5:15 pm on Sunday afternoon.
9/14/2016 7:00 AM 0.09 M M M M RW- with large drops started at about 0720 hrs lasting about 1.5 hours. Another RW- with smaller drops began about 1015 hours lasting about another 1.5 hours - that was it - everything was moving to the north, then the south-southwest and then to the east. Looked like the upper low was nearly over us after the 10:15 episode began.
