11/10/2015 7:00 AM 0.58 4.8 0.50 5.0 0.50 Heavy snow starting sometime between 1500 and 1700, but temps initially a little above freezing and remained near freezing, so very wet and heavy snow bowing all the tree and bushes that still had most of their leaves because of the late onset of fall. Overcast and still snowing lightly at 0700 this morning. Sampling the precip was very difficult because the snow was very sticky and tended to pile up on top of gauge, even though the inner cylinder and funnel were removed. Therefore I took a core sample which came in a little lower than the gauge readings, but that would be expected because the first flakes to fall were melting.
11/11/2015 7:00 AM T T M 1.0 M Clear and cold this morning. The storm was just winding down at 0700 yesterday morning and there was just a trace of snow after this time. The air temp stayed fairly cool, but there was a lot of heat in the ground, so there are a lot of bare spots showing. About half the yard has about 2" of snow and about half is snowless, so estimate about 1" average of what is left.
11/12/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Clear, gradual warm up, but a little hazy from inversion. Still anywhere from 0 to 2" snow on ground, but probably averages under 0.5", so I am calling it a trace.

Main front seemed to come in about 1400 with light snow starting at 1414 and continuing off and on through afternoon. It wasn't much of a storm at our location and traffic was moving normally on dry roads this morning.

Mixed, mostly light precip until 1415 with temp gradually dropping to 38. All snow after 1415 until 1614 and temp dropping to 34, 1/2-inch on colder surfaces at this point and windy during this last time period, although never as windy as forecast. Lull in precip between 1614 and 1840 with temp dropping to freezing at 1745. Moderate snow, sticking to roads, after1840. Snow stopped some time before 2200 and moon shining down on a nearly clear sky, temp 30. Overcast and light snow at 0700 this morning, temp 29, about 1.5" snow on ground.

12/11/2015 7:00 AM 0.38 4.0 M 4.0 M Overcast and storming most of the period, but break in storm from 1030 to 1440 and partial clearing during that time. The morning of the 10th precip was all rain (0.16"), but the afternoon precip, starting about 1500 was all snow, which started sticking about 1545, even though the temp was in the high thirties. Most of the snow fell after dark between 1700 and 2300 (0.22" water content) and had an average depth this morning of about 4". I doubt the temp ever got below freezing, but hovered close to the freezing point most of the night.

12/13/2015 8:07 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Mostly cloudy and very windy, rainbow to west. Rain just starting as I write this. Mostly cloudy yesterday, a little light snow when we were in Truckee early afternoon.
12/14/2015 7:00 AM 0.34 3.0 M 3.0 M Partly cloudy this morning and just a little below freezing with about 3" snow in the yard. Light rain started yesterday at 0807, becoming fairly heavy about 0945 with strong wind, temp in forties, turning to snow about 1300 and not nearly as windy, with temp in thirties, but only about 1/4" accumulation until steady snow started accumulating about 1700 (0.22" inches moisture up to 1700 and there was a break in the precip between 1400 and 1700). About 3" of steady snow fell between 1700 and 2300 with very little wind and with a water content of only 0.12". There didn't appear to be any precip after 2300. I don't have a lot of confidence in the gauge accurately capturing the snow because there was a fairly uniform 3" around the yard, but only 0.12" water content in the gauge, which is way too high a ratio for snow falling near freezing.
12/15/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 M Mostly cloudy this morning. Cold yesterday, but still lost quite a bit of the snow. Currently zero to 2" with average of about 1".
12/16/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M Partly cloudy and cold. Still about 1" of snow on the ground, but with bare spots, so average of about 1/2".
12/17/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.5 M Overcast, still patchy snow on ground (average of about 1/2").
12/18/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Clear, patches of snow still in yard.
12/19/2015 8:00 AM T 0.0 M T M Trace of rain overnight. Only scattered drops in gauge and having to remove inner cylinder this time of year makes accurately measuring small amounts of rain problematic. Mostly cloudy this morning, but it appears to be clearing and storm over for now. Only a few patches of snow remaining from earlier storms.
12/20/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M Overcast and windy.
12/21/2015 8:16 AM T 0.0 M 0.0 M Overcast, light rain. I slept in this morning, so I don't know when the storm started. There is not measurable rain in gauge, but everything is wet, I am surprised there is not more in gauge.
12/22/2015 7:00 AM 0.13 0.0 M 0.0 M Scattered clouds and very warm and windy this morning (temp near 50). Light rain most of yesterday and high winds, but it looked very stormy in the mountains.
12/23/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M Partly cloudy and windy yesterday, a few sprinkles when we were out shopping in the afternoon. Very warm for this time of year, temp near 60. Mostly clear and mild this morning.
12/24/2015 7:20 AM 0.03 0.4 M 0.5 M Overcast, light snow, calm, 28 degrees F. 1 cm snow on ground with water content of 0.03". Scattered clouds at 0400, overcast at 0500 and snowing by 0620, so snow started sometime between 0500 and 0620.
12/25/2015 7:00 AM 0.26 4.0 0.26 3.0 0.26 Partly cloudy and cold this morning, 3" snow on ground. Several core samples averaged 0.26" water content. Yesterday: Snowed all day until about 1400, then light snow or flurries after that. Heaviest snowfall occurred 0900 to about 1000 (4" in about 1-hour). It turned windy and showery after that with no additional depth added to snow on ground. Sun popped out about 1340, but there were periods of light snow after that that added 0.01" of moisture. There was an additional 0.01" of moisture overnight. This added up to 0.18" water content in 4" of snow that fell at close to the freezing point, so I concluded that my gauge didn't properly capture the snow and made several core measurements around the yard this morning and they averaged 0.26" water, so I used the core measurements this morning for yesterday's report of moisture.
12/26/2015 7:00 AM T T M 2.0 M Clear, cold and breezy this morning. About 2" of snow in the yard. Partly cloudy with a few snowflakes and cold Christmas Day.
12/27/2015 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.0 M Partly cloudy and cold, about 2" snow remaining. Calm winds.
12/28/2015 7:00 AM T 0.2 M 2.0 M Overcast, very light snow, both in intensity and water content. Five mm have fallen since about 0500 and it melted down to a drop too small to pour out of the cylinder, well under the 0.01" required to report a number and way below the expected water content for 0.2" of snow. Yesterday was mostly cloudy and cold with threatening sky, but no moisture until about 0500 this morning.
12/29/2015 7:00 AM 0.05 0.2 M 2.0 M A few clouds, light wind, 1" to 4" snow on ground, averaging about 2". Light snow off and on through most of yesterday, even moderate at times, but no accumulation mid-day because of slightly above freezing temperature.
12/30/2015 7:00 AM T T M 2.0 M Beautiful, but cold day yesterday, increasing clouds and a trace of snow overnight. Mostly cloudy this morning with still about 2" snow on the ground.

1/5/2016 7:00 AM T T M 1.0 M Overcast, light snow flurries, 29 degrees F, calm, 0 to 2" of snow on ground with average of about 1". Yesterday mostly cloudy, brief period of light snow that didn't stick but wetted the roads between 1600 and 1700.
1/6/2016 7:00 AM 0.27 2.0 M 3.0 M Overcast, calm, 26 degrees F, 3" snow on ground. Last 24 hours: Moderate snow started 0945 and was heaviest to about noon, then lasted off and on to late afternoon with partial clearing overnight. The snow fell at temps close to freezing and was very wet and hard to drive through. All this slop froze hard after dark and everything turned into an ice-skating rink.
1/7/2016 7:00 AM 0.10 1.0 M 3.5 M Overcast, snow starting about 0900, light to moderate, breaks in precip mid-day, other rounds of light snow 1340 to 1700 and 2300 to 2400. Mostly light wind and temps near freezing, although it did get into high thirties mid-day. Day started with about 3" snow on ground and about 1" of new snow fell, but there was some melting and the depth this morning was about 3.5". There have been so many small snowfall days and differential melting around the yard that it is pretty hard to get accurate numbers.
1/8/2016 7:00 AM T T M 3.0 M Scattered clouds this morning, 3" snow on ground. Only a few flakes of snow fell yesterday early, probably out of the fog layer.

1/14/2016 7:00 AM 0.04 T M 0.5 M Overcast, an average of about 1/2" snow in yard. A lot of melting yesterday with light rain in the morning and some light snow after 1600 that only left a dusting. All the moisture fell at temps above freezing.
1/15/2016 7:00 AM 0.16 0.5 M 1.0 M Mostly clear this morning, about 1/2" new snow and average total of about 1". Light rain and snow yesterday, windy, temps in high thirties most of day, changing to snow about 1550.
1/16/2016 7:00 AM T 0.0 M T M Overcast and breezy, temp about 36, some very light rain overnight that was a substantial trace, but probably less than 0.01". It is really hard to measure our Nevada rainstorms during the winter when you can't use the inner cylinder because the droplets hang up on the walls of the outer cylinder.

Very windy and mostly cloudy yesterday with a few sprinkles mid-morning and then rain in the evening, heavy at times, turning to snow about 2330 with main accumulation after 0300. The wind made measurements difficult. I kept the inner cylinder in place until the rain turned to snow (0.18" moisture to this point). The outer cylinder only had 0.13" of moisture in it with large amounts of snow and ice stuck to the outside, so I took several core samples and used this average for the snow water content for the snow segment of the storm.

3/5/2016 7:00 AM 0.14 0.0 M 0.0 M Mostly cloudy, 0.13" of rain yesterday from about 1600 to 1700 and another 0.01" in the evening.
3/6/2016 7:00 AM 0.30 T M T M Evening and overnight rain with a trace of snow on the colder surfaces this morning. Breezy, but we never experienced the high winds that were forecast.
3/7/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M Overcast, calm this morning. Storm stayed in the mountains, so no precip here in spite of the forecast of 100% probability.
3/8/2016 7:00 AM 0.05 T M 0.0 M Clear and calm this morning. Mostly cloudy yesterday with light snow starting 0740' turning to rain about 1000 and continuing off and on throughout the daylight hours, but not amounting to much. The Sierras are shielding us from most of the rain and snow, but there appears to have been substantial rain on the snowpack as the Truckee River is running bank to bank and looking muddy.

3/13/2016 7:00 AM T 0.0 M 0.0 M Partly cloudy and breezy this morning, only trace of rain in last 24 hours. Looks like it is still storming in the mountains, just like yesterday. All we get down here is maximum rain shadowing and lots of wind. All the trees are in full bloom and spring has definitely sprung early; time to bring out the hoses if today's storm gets hung up in the mountains.
3/14/2016 7:00 AM 0.06 0.0 M 0.0 M Stormy yesterday, but the main feature was high wind and very little rain, 0.06" which mostly came last night in a brief burst before midnight. The mountains appeared to get plenty of snow but efficiently rain-shadowed us even more than usual. Partly cloudy and windy this morning with some sprinkles.

3/22/2016 7:00 AM 0.05 0.4 M 0.5 M Partly cloudy and windy this morning with 0.4" snow on ground that fell between 2300 and 0700. The gauge readings were 0.04" before the snow started and 0.05" at reading time, so wind had to be a factor because there couldn't be a forty to one ratio for snow that fell at the freezing point.
3/23/2016 7:00 AM T 0.0 M 0.0 M A few snow pellet flurries in the afternoon, partly cloudy, windy and cold. Clear and frosty this morning.

3/29/2016 7:00 AM 0.14 3.0 M 2.0 M Overcast, 2" snow on ground, light wind. Yesterday started with the continuation of heavy, wet snow which lasted to 0813, then turned to light snow off and on through the daylight hours. Maximum snow depth was about 6" because melting was also going on. The additional snow that fell didn't correlate well with the rain gauge measurements that recorded 0.11" water between 0700 and 1000 and 0.03" after that.
3/30/2016 7:00 AM T T M T M Overcast both yesterday and this morning at gauge reading time. A few graupel pellets fell about 0800 yesterday, but that is all the moisture we got, even though it was threatening at times during the period. Just a few small patches of snow left in the yard.

The measurement of the moisture is somewhat problematic because most of the snow was plastered on the gauge instead of in it. There had to have been more than the 0.03" I measured.

5/6/2016 7:00 AM 1.05 T M 0.0 M Overcast, moderate rain, temp middle forties. On and off showers throughout the last 24 hour period with a final total of 1.05". Very unusual storm for early May with hail, periods of lightning, several periods of moderate to heavy rain spread over the entire 24 hours. The reporting period started yesterday with a hail and thunderstorm which started at 0715 with 1/4" hail and lasted until 0747 (this was a continuation of a T-storm with even larger hail that started before 0700). The hail didn't do much damage, didn't accumulate to more than a few pellets depth and melted fairly rapidly. There was a break in the storm about 1040 with 0.37" of rain up to this point. Additional thunderstorms between 1309 and 1523 dropped 0.22" rain. Another bout of rain started at 1645 and lasted overnight with heavy rain at 0649 this morning and this period accounted for another 0.46" of rain. There was no flooding, but some of the nearby creeks coming off of Peavine Mountain were running fast and furious!
5/7/2016 7:00 AM 0.07 0.0 M 0.0 M Overcast, breezy, light rain.

The temperature during most of this time was near 50 F, so there was no accumulation of solid precip. Things were quite wet by sunset, so it was very hard to believe that only 0.03" of precip fell. I think there was probably at least twice as much as I recorded. For one thing, the precip was coming in on high wind at right angles to my rain gauge. It seems like we ought to be able to come up with better measuring devices with all our technology!

There appeared to be stronger storms in the vicinity, but they missed us. The activity died off with the sunset.
