12/6/2017 8:00 AM 0.41 0.0 M 0.0 M Very windy this morning and above freezing. Seemed like there would have been more precipitation to measure - there was a pretty heavy downpour in late evening.
12/7/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M A little front A little frost this morning. Clear and sunny
12/8/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M Below freezing, but no wind. Partly cloudy day so far. No frost today.
12/9/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M No snow yet! Overcast and very still.
12/10/2017 8:30 AM 0.35 4.0 0.31 4.8 M Beautiful snowfall. Recorded time it started yesterday, but not sure when it ended. This morning is sunny and cold. When I took some samples off the snow board they were higher than on the snow board. It didn't seem as though there had been much drifting though. Took a long time to do measurements - I'll get better with practice!
12/11/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 3.8 M Cold clear morning. Although it didn't get above freezing yesterday, there is less snow on ground than yesterday. Maybe compacting, blowing rather than melting.
12/12/2017 7:30 AM T 0.0 M 2.8 M Very light precipitation now, but above freezing. Don't know when it began, but there are only some droplets in gauge so must have been recently. Old snow is average of 4 measurements.
12/13/2017 8:45 AM 0.41 0.1 M 0.5 M There was solid ice in gauge. It rained most of the day and then in the evening turned to snow. Since such a small portion was melted snow, I recorded NA for melted snow. It was very windy all night so there is drifting of old and new snow, although most old snow is hard. The total given below is an average of measurements between 1.0" and 0.1".
12/14/2017 8:00 AM 0.08 1.2 0.07 2.1 0.11 Snow stopped around time of measurement. Core of old and new was taken later, but nonew snow and no melting occurred.
12/15/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.7 M Sorry about the delay in entering - I had difficulty with the website. Very cold this morning - old snow was crunchy underfoot. Too hard to get a core sample of old snow. Averaged 4 measurements to get depth. Not too much variation in depth .
12/16/2017 8:00 AM 0.03 0.3 0.03 2.1 M Windy this morning and during night. Not sure when snow stopped. Doesn't seem to be too much drifting though.
12/17/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.2 M Temperatures in the teens. Looks like the lake has ice on it. Don't see open water anymore. Old snow seems not to have melted nor compacted much. Crunchy underfoot.
12/18/2017 8:00 AM T T M 2.2 0.13 Not sure when the snow fell, but there is nothing coming down now. Took a core sample of old and new today. Depth of old and new is an average.
12/19/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Most of the old snow is gone - just a few patches around. Temperatures feel almost balmy - although still below 40.
12/20/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M Old snow completely gone.
12/21/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M
12/22/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M Cold and overcast, but no precipitation.
12/23/2017 8:00 AM 0.15 0.0 M 0.0 M Nasty morning. Raining and freezing. Ice on the bottom of gauge with rain on top. Paved surfaces are treacherous. Town is out sanding, but there is no traffic other than them on our road. I see little pellets of ice on our deck, so it might have selected earlier.
12/24/2017 8:00 AM 0.47 0.0 M 0.0 M Everything is dried up this morning. Surprised there wasn't more rain in gauge as it rained all day yesterday - hard at times. Wishing for a white Christmas, but don't think it will happen.
12/25/2017 8:00 AM 0.30 3.0 0.33 3.2 0.21 Takes me a long time to do snow measurements, but I'm getting better! Thought the storm was ending as I took measurements because I saw blue sky. But then some very light flakes started falling and blue sky disappeared. No sure it is over yet. The old and new is all new snow measured on the ground in several places and averaged.
12/26/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 3.0 M Very cold and windy, but old snow doesn't seemed to have drifted much. Maybe because it is so cold and snow is packed.
12/27/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.5 M Problems with my tablet entering data this morning - took awhile to sort out. It is bitterly cold - glad my gauge is not too far away!
12/28/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.6 M Mighty cold! 2 degrees F. Can't believe the lake isn't not frozen, but I can see waves - wind must be keeping it open.
12/29/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.5 M
12/30/2017 8:00 AM T T M 2.7 M New snow on board is not measurable, but when I average 4 sites of old + new snow today it is 2.7". Last two days it has been 2.5" maybe the new sticks better to old snow?
1/2/2018 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M 3.5 M Clear and very cold today. Looks like the lake is iced over. Had trouble accessing the website earlier, so entered late.
1/3/2018 8:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.9 0.20
1/4/2018 8:00 AM 0.05 0.5 0.09 3.7 M Windy, but no branches down here. Very fine snow, falling pretty fast, but sideways.
1/5/2018 8:30 AM 0.28 5.5 0.67 7.3 M Snow is drifted a bit - lots of small debris on surface, but no large limbs came down yesterday. Still windy and 4 degrees. Old and new is average of 4 readings in area of gauge. Most drifting is around structures.
1/6/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 7.2 M Nothing in gauge, but snow board was drifted over. Did not measure as it is clearly not new snow. Very windy yesterday especially in evening. Made the low temperatures much worse.
1/7/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 6.0 M Clear, sunny morning and no wind thank goodness! Minus 4 degrees here. No drifting on snowboard this morning.
1/8/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 6.5 M Had to take reading early today - leaving for meeting. Seems much warmer today (15) and no wind.
1/9/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 0.1 M 6.0 M old and new measurement is an average of 4 locations. Becoming more variable between them. Snow on board was just barely measurable, but could not get a core sample.
1/10/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 6.0 M Yesterday was above freezing, but partly cloudy so it seems like not as much melting as I would have expected. Average old + new is same as yesterday.
1/11/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 6.0 M Rain has not started yet today. Will look out for flooding.
1/12/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 0.0 M 2.5 M Strange morning. Warm, but some snow still on ground (2.5") making for low lying fog that blows with the wind. Not raining at time of reading gauge, but slightly more than trace of rain has fallen (0.02").
1/13/2018 8:00 AM 1.77 0.0 M 0.0 M All old snow is gone. Rain was sometimes very heavy yesterday. There was some flooding on the road down hill from us, but it was passable. There was standing water on our walkway, but today it is all gone. There are very faint flakes in the air.
1/14/2018 8:15 AM 0.00 0.0 M 0.0 M Back to the deep freeze. Only no snow cover this time. Fortunately steely, no ice either.
1/15/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Flakes floating in the air this morning, but very light and not accumulating. The lake is frozen over again after the brief partial thaw. It looks like glass. Saw some people on it yesterday, but no vehicles.
1/16/2018 7:30 AM T T M T M Had to read gauge early because of morning meeting. Snow started about 7:10 am here. Just a trace now, but falling steadily.
1/17/2018 8:00 AM 0.20 2.2 0.22 2.5 M Still lightly snowing. Now wind, very calm and quiet.
1/18/2018 8:00 AM 0.11 0.8 0.12 3.0 M Although it seemed to snow all day yesterday, very little additional accumulation - only 0.8".
1/19/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 3.0 0.27 cold and sunny today. Not much snow melt yesterday, if any. No wind so little drifting. People have been driving ATVs and other vehicles on the lake - solidly frozen.
1/20/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 3.0 M Depth of old and new on ground has stayed the same - 3.0". There has been little melting on surfaces even though sunny yesterday.
1/21/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 1.5 M Temps in the 40s yesterday melted some of the snow. Only 1.5" left on ground. Snow is very icy this morning - needed some force to insert the measuring stick. The lake surface became very wet yesterday with melting, but probably hardened up with freezing temps overnight.
1/22/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 0.0 0.00 0.5 0.23 Not actually raining, but misty, overcast out. Small amount of precipitation in gauge .02". There is still some old snow on ground here although there are patches too. I measured the places that have snow which are also where I've been measuring since the snow fell. I also did a core from this area and got 0.23" melted.
1/23/2018 8:00 AM 0.29 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Raining pretty heavily - surprised there is not more in gauge, but not sure when rain started. Very foggy overnight. Puddles in yard and walkway is flooded. Ground feels still frozen and all old snow is gone. So watr has no place to go.
1/24/2018 8:00 AM 0.30 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Everything has dried up, no standing water or flooding. Windy overnight. I wonder if anything happened to the Kent ice jam?
1/25/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Everything absolutely bare and now frozen. Back to deep freeze, but sunny today.
1/26/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Ground is frozen solid - grass is crispy. No precipitation at all - all zeroes. The lake is frozen again. The Kent ice jam is still in place. The Housatonic in New Milford has broken up a lot and there is a channel through the middle of the ice except for one small portion. Lovers Leap gorge still looks pretty jammed up. So much debris is caught up in the ice.
1/27/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 A little frost this morning - haven't seen frost in quite awhile. Otherwise, dry and clear.
1/28/2018 8:30 AM 0.18 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Little be of rain overnight. Not raining now, but very overcast. Above freezing (45) and ground feels a little soft.
1/29/2018 8:00 AM T 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Few drops on sides and bottom of gauge. Grass is very crunchy this morning.
1/30/2018 8:00 AM 0.08 1.0 0.10 1.5 0.08 Light snow, still falling a little. Very fluffy.
1/31/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.5 M Although it was still snowing when I took yesterday's measurements, there is nothing in the gauge or on snow board. There is a half inch of snow (avg) left on ground, but there are also many bare spots around shrubs and trees. Very cold this morning, but clear.
2/1/2018 8:00 AM T T M T M Trace of snow fell during night. Although sunny yesterday afternoon, it was cold so still traces of old snow left.
2/2/2018 8:00 AM 0.31 0.8 0.18 1.5 M Very icy snow, but in footprints it turns to slush even though temperature is in 20's. Solid block of ice in gauge. Rain turned to snow last night approximately 10:00 pm. Unfortunately, did not have time to take core on ground.
2/3/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 1.0 0.18 Very cold and the snow has become ice where it was stepped on yesterday. The snow has very icy consistency. I did not have time to do a core of the snow and ice on ground yesterday, so I did one today. I was interested in comparison to core on snow board, but the consistency is so different today (less water, more ice) that it is more like the new snow on the board yesterday.
2/4/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 1.0 M No precipitation overnight. Thought it was supposed rain and turn to snow. Still below freezing, but not the bitter cold of yesterday. Not much melting yesterday, except on scraped surfaces.
2/5/2018 8:00 AM 0.84 0.0 0.00 T T After hard rain last evening, surfaces are very icy. The gauge contained all rain. There are still traces of old snow and ice on ground. The old snow has become crystalline, but is not a complete cover. Lots of bare spots and areas that are all ice (such as where footprints were).
2/6/2018 9:00 AM T T M T M Snowing lightly started about 8:45. Unexpected - winter storm watch is for tomorrow. Still a small amount of o,d snow and ice on ground.
2/7/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 T M No new precipitation. Still a small trace of old ice/snow around. Overcast, but no snow/rain yet.
2/8/2018 7:00 AM 0.52 1.0 M 1.5 M The snow started approximately 9:00 am yesterday and changed over to rain at 12:23pm. I measured melted snow in gauge, new snow and snow on ground st that time and am recording them as today's measurements as instructed. The rain stopped sometime during the evening. This morning at 7:00 (I had to check earlier than my usual 8:00 due to a meeting) the gauge had ice in it. When melted it was 0.36". I'm not sure where to record that so I am putting here in comments. {0.16" + 0.36" = 0.52"}
2/9/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.5 M No precipitation. Remaining old snow is very icy, but still covers most of yard. Sunny today - hope it will melt ice on walks and driveway!
2/10/2018 9:00 AM 0.06 0.3 0.05 1.0 M Some snow last evening, but only measures 0.3" new. Above freezing and snow is very wet.
2/11/2018 8:00 AM 0.60 0.0 0.00 T T It's been raining since yesterday afternoon. Above freezing so a lot of the remaining snow/ice is gone. There is still a trace of snow/ice on ground. Foggy also, especially over the lake.
2/12/2018 8:00 AM 0.62 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Rain has stopped, but quite windy. Above freezing, so all ice and snow are gone. Some flooding on roads in places yesterday evening, but all passable.
2/13/2018 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Nothing in gauge, ground is bare. Very cold again, no ice though except on bodies of water.
2/14/2018 8:00 AM T 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Surfaces are icy, but only a trace has fallen.
2/17/2018 8:00 AM T 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Clear, cold and frosty this morning. Big temperature change from 50's of yesterday. Just a trace of ice droplets in gauge.
2/18/2018 8:00 AM 0.65 7.0 0.64 7.5 M Well we got as much as they predicted.. 7.5" on the ground. Very pretty now with the sun out. Won't last long - temperatures will be above freezing soon.
2/19/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 4.5 0.51 No additional precipitation since yesterday. Snow cover has ice crust from melting yesterday.
2/20/2018 8:00 AM 0.09 0.0 0.00 0.5 M Very foggy this morning. Lots of condensation on outside of gauge. There are a lot of bare areas, but also places with one or more inches of snow left. I think it averages about 1/2" remaining snow, but really difficult to sat. In the 40's, so no ice. Remaining snow very slushy.
2/21/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 After the sunny, warm day yesterday, there is not a trace of the previous snow left. No precipitation in gauge. Warm and cloudy this morning.
2/22/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Very little pr copitwtion in gauge (.02") and currently nothing is coming down. Although much cooler than yesterday, still above freezing.
2/23/2018 7:30 AM 0.17 T M T M I started raining heavily yesterday afternoon. That mixed with sleet and then turned to snow. There is a trace of snow on the ground this morning, but roads and walks are clear. The precipitation in the gauge was partly frozen and some liquid. Temperatures are right around freezing.
2/24/2018 8:00 AM 0.19 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Clear, partly sunny day. Above freezing. Lots of condensation on gauge.
2/25/2018 8:00 AM 0.94 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Still lightly raining. No ice that had been predicted. Temps above freezing.
2/26/2018 8:00 AM 0.22 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Wish there was snow so I could do a Monday SWE!! In the 40's and seems like snow is over for the season! Some rain in gauge from yesterday (0.22").
2/27/2018 7:15 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 No precipitation to measure. There is a little frost this morning which I haven't seen in weeks. Temperature in the high twenties. These temperature swings make it so hard to know how to dress, especially for outdoor activities like hiking. Went hiking yesterday inSherman and the woods were so wet. Some trails were like streams, others just mushy and mucky. Everything was just draining to lower ground. My own yard I a not that bad and of course this morning, it is solid.
2/28/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Clear, above freezing, no frost this morning.
3/1/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 No precipitation (yet!). Everything is dry - waiting for the deluge. Above freezing, no frost.
3/2/2018 8:00 AM 1.30 0.4 0.38 0.5 M Ice and rain in gauge. On ground, is slushy snow. Very wet, not icy.
3/3/2018 8:00 AM 0.29 1.5 0.20 2.5 M Clear and cloudy today, but the wind is still strong. Maybe less than yesterday, but still blowing. Hard to get an idea of how much snow there really is on the ground. I did do an average or 4 measurements to report.
3/4/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 T M Overcast today, but no precipitation. A small trace of snow left on ground. Above freezing.
3/5/2018 8:00 AM T T T T T Small trace of snow & ice in gauge. Light dusting on grounds as well. Saw if flurry goes for awhile around 5:00 pm yesterday - maybe lasted an hour or so. Below freezing so it stayed. Windy again today.
3/6/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Clear and sunny this morning. Lots of frost around, but not heavy - except on gauge! I had to peak around side to see it was empty.
3/7/2018 8:00 AM 0.09 1.0 0.10 1.5 0.10 Temps right around freezing. Snow very lightly falling. Not sticking to paved surfaces at this point, although 1.5" on the ground - 1.0" new on board. My depth measurements on the ground when there are only a few inches of snow seem to regularly be about 1/2" higher than on the board when snow is new. I think this is because the grass holds the snow up, especially when it it light fluffy snow like today. The SWE are equal though - both 0.10".
3/8/2018 8:00 AM 0.43 8.0 1.21 10.5 1.26 I hadn't a problem with my gauge. It had snow in the bottom 1/4, then nothing in the middle, and a snow plug in the top 1/4 that didn't slide down. There was snow piled up out of the top as well, which I knocked down in assuming it would have gone into gauge if it wasn't plugged. So I don't think that reflects what fell yesterday. That is why I took the extra time to be sure to do the melted value on the ground - probably more accurate.
3/9/2018 7:15 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 7.0 M Yesterday the snow was wet and heavy. Last might it went down into 20's and the snow this morning is crunchy and hard. Difficult to walk where not shoveled. Even though it didn't get too much above freezing yesterday and clouds came in in afternoon, some melting did occur. Only 7.0" left on the ground. I had to take measurements early due to morning meeting.
3/10/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 6.0 M Clear, cold morning. Bright sun. Snow is crunchy. A little melting yesterday - about 1.0" less on ground than yesterday.
3/11/2018 9:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 5.0 M Very much the same as yesterday morning - sunny, below freezing, hard, crunchy snow. No new precipitation. Time change caught me - sorry.
3/12/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 3.5 0.76 Remaining snow melted more yesterday in the sun, but today what is left is (3.5" avg) icy. It was hard to get the ruler through the crust and to push the gauge in to take core.
3/13/2018 8:00 AM 0.09 1.7 0.13 5.0 M Snowing steadily this morning. At this time, we have 1.7" new snow. We had 3.5" left on ground yesterday morning and now there is 5.0". Seems like there was very little melting yesterday.
3/14/2018 8:00 AM 0.10 T T 4.0 1.04 I don't think that the snow board measurements indicate the amount of snow that fell after I took yesterday morning's readings. It kept snowing the rest of the morning, but then the temperature got up to about 38 and it melted a lot. This early morning was also very windy. What was in the gauge had melted and frozen, but it too doesn't seem to reflect what fell. There is still quite a bit of snow here left on the ground - 4.0" average. I did the SWE of it which equaled 1.04".
3/15/2018 8:00 AM 0.03 0.6 0.04 3.5 0.80 A little dusting of snow in the night. Measured 0.6" on board. There is some wind, but it seems to be higher. Small amount in gauge as well. The old snow is more like ice pellets - very hard to melt! Still about 3.5" on ground.
3/16/2018 8:00 AM T T T 1.5 M Very light snow was falling when I checked gauge, even though the sun was just coming over the hill. There was a little dusting of snow on board also. It is difficult to report the snow on the ground because about one quarter of the yard is bare, and the rest has 2.5". So I averaged to 1.5". Hope that gives an idea of what is on ground.
3/17/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.5 M Cold this morning, but sunny. No new snow. Leftover snow has melted more - the average of several measurements near the gauge (including 0 for the bare area) is 0.5". However on the other side of the house from the gauge, there is still 4 - 5" of hard, crusty snow on the ground.
3/18/2018 8:15 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Very cold - in the teens, but sunny and dry.
3/19/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 I checked gauge at 8:00, but forgot to come in and enter information. Sorry, but it is all zeroes.
3/20/2018 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 cold again this morning - low 20's aand partly cloudy. Winter storm warning in effect for next two days.
3/21/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Cloudy,just at freezing but no precipitation yet. Winter storm warning still in effect. Precipitation began very lightly at about 10:45 am. I edited this report to reflect that. At 4:00 pm I edited this report to remove the start time of precipitation. At about 12:00, the snow stopped before ever getting too heavy. There was nothing on the ground or other surfaces. It has not restarted as of 4:00 pm.

Brooks were flowing very fast and overrunning their banks a bit, but I didn't see any serious flooding. The ground around our little brook is still very squishy.

It was a hot one yesterday - upper 80's. And with the wind, there was a fire hazard warning issued. It's almost 70 already today. A little hazy, but sun is shining. Might get a thundershower.

5/16/2018 8:00 AM 0.87 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 What a storm yesterday! I've never experienced anything like it. I think we heard that it was a tornado. The wind damage was incredible. It hailed briefly about 1/4" pellets - I filed hail report. Only lasted a couple of minutes and melted right away. Trees down everywhere. No power. The town has declared a state of emergency. Our street was blocked at both ends until about midnight when one end was opened. Storm started at about 4:45 pm yesterday. The severe winds only lasted about 15 minutes, but the storm went on with light rain and thunder and lightening for at least another hour (estimate).

5/20/2018 8:00 AM 0.51 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 It's warmer this morning than it got all day yesterday. It's in low 60's now. Foggy, but not currently raining. A bit of a breeze. It would be nice to see the sun again! Some of my taller plants that were in a group were blown down in Tuesday's storm. I thought they would stand back up, but it looks like some of them will not.
5/21/2018 8:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 There were a few rain shows yesterday, so I was surprised at how little was in the gauge. I guess because they weren't long or heavy. Beautiful morning - sunny, almost 60 degrees.
5/22/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Zeroes today - first time in awhile. But it looks like it will rain again today. Cloudy and about 60. At least it is warm.

5/31/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 No precipitation to report. Cloudy this morning, but still warm - 60 degreees. Plants would like some rain - hopefully later today. Checked my gauge early this morning because I'm going on birding hike - so would like rain to hold off a few hours!
6/1/2018 8:00 AM 0.03 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Very lightly raining as I checked the gauge this morning. Rain started last evening but was light and on and off - not steady. So not much accumulation - only 0.03". It is warm though -67 degrees. And foggy - can't see the lake this morning.
6/2/2018 8:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Little bit of rain overnight (0.01"). Plants need a good soaking. Bright and sunny this morning. Already 73 degrees!

6/4/2018 8:00 AM 0.60 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 This is what we needed - a good soaking! 0.60". Awfully cool though 50 degrees! Fortunately, tomatoes ar not in ground yet, so we could bring them in last night. Rain seems to have stopped momentarily.
6/5/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Sunny, but cool (57). Very still. Lots of dew on grass. Condensation on outside of gauge.
6/6/2018 8:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Partly cloudy today, a bit breezy. Rain showers came and went yesterday alternating with sun. Never very long nor heavy, so there is little accumulation in gauge (0.01").
6/7/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Nothing in gauge today. Yesterday was cool and partly sunny. Good weather for gardening- the soil does not dry out so fast. And it's easier to work in cololer weather! Overcast this morning, but rain is not predicted.
6/8/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Another dry day, but at least it was partly cloudy and cool so plants didn't need extra water. This morning is clear and sunny and 61. Looks like it will be warmer than yesterday - will probably have to water plants this evening.

6/11/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Still no rain. But at least yesterday was cloudy and not hot, so plants did not get too dried out. Hazy sunshine this morning. Lots of dew on the grass. Very still.
6/12/2018 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Cooler this morning (50), but I had to read gauge earlier due to meeting at usual time. Clear, sunny, lots of dew on grass and rain, but cooler temperatures and some clouds helped keep plants from drying out too badly.
6/13/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Off for an early bird walk, so checked the gauge early again today. No precipitation again, but we are expecting some later today. That's good because it is getting pretty dry. Newly planted flowers and vegetables have to be watered every day with no rain. Established plants are doing OK.
6/14/2018 8:00 AM 0.09 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Finally got a little rain, but not much - 0.09". It held off all day until about 12:00 am. The wind picked up during the night and this morning it doesn't look like anything was even wet. Nice and sunny this morning - already in high 60's.

Very little dew on grass this morning - just a trace.
6/16/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Beautiful, clear sunny day. A little cooler than the last few days. Lots of dew on the grass and condensation on the gauge. No rain not even a trace to report. Since it was cooler and mostly overcast yesterday, only the new plants needed a bit of watering.

6/18/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Hot, dry day yesterday and it looks like the same for today. Already 75 degrees with hazy sun. Some dew on grass. No precipitation to report.

6/22/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 No precipitation to report. Yesterday was in the 80s mostly sunny. But plants didn't seem to dry out too badly. However, our lawn is starting to burn in areas, so we've stopped mowing. We have well water and do not want to water the lawn - it eventually comes back when we get rain. Looks like we might get more some this weekend. I did read my gauge at 8:00, but had trouble with iPad so couldn't enter right away.
6/23/2018 8:45 AM 0.06 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Nice rain last night, but not much accumulation to report (.06"). Grass appreciat s it though. Cloudy and cool this morning. I hope there is more rain on the way.
6/24/2018 8:00 AM T 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 There were some sprinkles yesterday, but no real rain. That must be why there is a trace in the gauge. This morning is cloudy with fog on hill tops and over lake. Temperature about 66. Even though there wasn't much rain last few days, plants seem to be doing well.
6/25/2018 8:00 AM 0.31 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Had some storms come through yesterday evening; mostly rain, little thunder or lightning. 0.31" was good for plants. And it cooled things down for pleasant sleeping. This morning is partly cloudy with some sun and about 66 degrees.
6/26/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Back to zeroes. The temperature dipped low last night - 49 degrees when we got up. Lots of dew on the grass this morning. Sunny and clear, low humidity. Two dead insects in tube and bird poop in funnel and outside of gauge. Seems I'm collecting more than rain! Birds seem to think it is a good perch.
6/27/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Yesterday was a beautiful day - mostly sunny, low humidity. I don't think it reached 80. And no precipitation not even st night. We are supposed to get rain tonight, but I still think I need to water today, just in case the pr diction is wrong.
6/28/2018 8:00 AM 1.70 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Finally we got a good soaking rain - 1.70"! Mild thunderstorms in early morning added more. It has stopped raining, but looks like it might start up again. Very still - no wind.
6/29/2018 8:00 AM 0.38 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Thought there would be more rain in the gauge from yesterday's storms. Only 0.38". I was in Ridgefield at about 3:30 yesterday when they got hit by a thunderstorm and torrential rain. Roads had standing water several inches deep - difficult to drive. And lots of thunder and lightning. I'll be interested to see what they measured this morning. My plants look very happy today - it actually seems they have grown visibly in last two days.
6/30/2018 8:00 AM T 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Surprised to see a trace in the tube. Not aware of any small showers yesterday, but I guess it could have been at night. Or maybe it is dew? There is a lot of dew on grass and condensation on the gauge- how do I know if it is dew? I've had other mornings with a lot of dew, but no trace in tube? It was very humid yesterday though - and hot. Up to 88. Will be worse today.
7/1/2018 8:15 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Yesterday reached low 90s here - thank goodness for the pool! Old house is not air conditioned. Cloudy now with a little sun and 78 degrees already. No precipitation, plants are still benefitting from previous rains.
7/2/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Zeroes! Got into the high 90's yesterday - miserable. Earlier this morning it was foggy, but now it has cleared and is sunny. Already 78 degrees. Another scorcher on the way! Would love a thunderstorm to roll through and give us some relief, but nothing is predicted.

7/4/2018 8:00 AM 0.73 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 A storm came through about 6:00 yesterday evening and brought a bri f, torrential rain and wind. It also lowered the temperature almost 20 degrees which was a relief. Brutally hot yesterday before the storm. This heat wave just goes on and on and with all the surrounding trees lost over the last year our house just bakes in the sun. Hope it ends soon. Happy Fourth of July!
7/5/2018 8:10 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 There weee storms all around us yesterday, but nothing ever hit us directly, so no precipitation to report. Nineties again yesterday. This morning overcast and 77 degr es. Very still.

7/7/2018 8:00 AM 0.20 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Yesterday late morning it rained quite heavily. Heard thunder in distance. Surprised at how little actually accumulated - 0.20".

7/12/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Another clear, sunny day. Yesterday was into the mid 80's. No precipitation to report. Watered everything yesterday. Hope I gave them enough so the roots grow deep.
7/13/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 More zeroes! I know they are important. Our small brook is just about dried up. Clear and sunny this morning. Not too humid. About 61 degrees. Lots of dew.
7/14/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Partly cloudy this morning and very still. Lake is very quiet - usually there are fishermen roaring around. We might get some rain tonight or early morning. I hope so.
7/15/2018 8:45 AM 0.52 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Nice storm last evening. Thought it would measure to be more than 0.52". At least my plants got watered!
7/26/2018 8:00 AM 1.12 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 The sun is trying to come out, but I think we are in for more rain today. No signs of flooding in my small corner of the world, although we got another 1.12" in the last 24 hours. Everything is growing like crazy - it's a jungle out there!! Too wet to mow or weed. Nature is much bett r at watering my gardens than I am!!
7/27/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 I thought we had more rain yesterday morning than 0.02". It cleared up in afternoon and was sunny for rest of the day. Water was very dirty. The birds here seem to like to defecate in the funnel! It makes a good perch.
7/28/2018 8:10 AM 0.21 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Foggy this morning. Around 70 degrees. Condensation on outside of gauge.
7/29/2018 8:00 AM 0.72 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Storms rolled through in early evening last night and dumped 0.72". I didn't observe any flooding. Our pool is filled to the max! Cooled things off nicely. This morning it is sunny and low 60's - very pleasant.
7/30/2018 8:00 AM T 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Not sure if the trace was from precipitation or dew. Dew is very heavy on the grass and the gauge had heavy condensation on it. In low 60's this morning, sunny with a few clouds.
7/31/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Truly no precipitation to report today. Foggy this morning, but sun looks like it is trying to burn through. 68 degrees.
8/1/2018 8:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Light rain started about half an hour ago. There had probably been a little rain prior to that as surfaces looked partly wet. Warm - around 70 degrees.
8/2/2018 8:00 AM 0.28 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.90 Rained on and off yesterday and then a storm came through in late afternoon. I was in Danbury at the time and it was a fairly intense storm, but my husband said here in New Milford it was not much. I guess that is why there is only 0.28" in funnel. Cleared up after that, but very humid. This morning is clear,sunny and lower humidity.
8/3/2018 7:00 AM 1.47 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Thunderstorm yesterday late afternoon dumped most of the rain. Overcast today - more storms on the way I read. 74 degrees already! Had to read gauge early today - will be away all day.
8/4/2018 8:00 AM 1.85 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Raining quite hard while I measured. And overnight.
8/5/2018 8:15 AM 0.20 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 I'm surprised that there was only 0.20" in the gauge this morning. It seemed like it rained pretty hard for awhile after I measured yesterday morning. But it did clear up nicely in afternoon and was mostly sunny after that. A little cooler this morning - 67 degrees. For all the rain we received over the last few days, ther didn't seem to be much if any, flooding.
8/6/2018 9:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 There was 0.01" in the gauge this morning, but I'm quite sure it is from dew. All day yesterday was clear and this morning is sunny. And the is heavy dew on the grass and on the gauge too. Going to be hot again today!
8/7/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Although no rain, the soil is still wet, so garden is still doing well. Actually, on Sunday (8/5), I noticed there was standing water in the lower part of our yard near the book. I haven't been down there since to check it. Hot this morning - yesterday was in 90's and today will be also I think.
8/8/2018 8:00 AM 0.24 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Foggy this morning. Late afternoon thunderstorm yesterday. And second one in evening, but minor. Already 74. Heat advisory in effect for today.

8/10/2018 8:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Not sure if 0.01" is precipitation or dew? The dew I saw very heavy on the grass and on the gauge this morning, but the deck is also a little wet, so there might have been a brief shower. Cooler this morning - low sixties. Sunny and clear.
8/11/2018 8:00 AM 0.03 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Overcast, 69 degrees this morning. Looks like rain will start soon.

8/13/2018 8:00 AM 0.01 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 We did have a few sprinkles yesterday, so the 0.01 in gauge is precipitation not dew. There is not any condensation on gauge, but dew on the grass this morning. Dreary morning.
8/14/2018 8:00 AM 0.79 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Rained hard yesterday for quite awhile. Surprised there is not more than 0.79" in gauge. Overcast again today. Warm - 73. Looks like could be more rain. Ugh! None of my plants are doing well - zucchini died, cucumber is dying, tomatoes are small and taking a long time to ripen. Flowers are doing better. But hydrangeas are all bent over because the blossoms hold the water and get heavy.
8/15/2018 8:30 AM 0.04 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Small amount of rain (0.04") from two very small thunderstorms yesterday. You could see half the sky was partly blue and other half had dark gray clouds with thunder and lightening. Nice rainbow too. I think it will be a hot one today!
8/16/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 First zero in awhile! But glad to be drying out. Low areas are squishy still. Sunny today with a bit of fog this morning. Lots of dew. Another hot one!
8/17/2018 7:30 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Foggy this morning, lots of dew. Condensation on gauge. First time mosquitoes have bothered me while checking gauge!! Two days with no rain!!

8/22/2018 8:00 AM 0.39 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Not raining when I checked gauge, but think we will have more storms during the day. Overnight it was a pretty gentle rain, so there was only 0.39" in gauge.
8/23/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Not raining now, but all surfaces are wet so it was raining recently. Not much in gauge (0.02"). Looks like it could start raining at any moment. Cooler this morning - 60 degrees.
8/24/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 There was a trace in inner tube, but I'm quite sure it was dew. So I am reporting zero. Yesterday turned into a perfect day. Sunny, low humidity, not hot.

8/27/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Another day of zero precipitation. Yesterday was beautiful and sunny - not too hot. I think today is the start of a possible heat though. Already 70 degrees. I have to water the plants in post, but those in the ground seem to be doing OK. And the low areas are still wet.
8/28/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Warm already! No precipitation to report. Standing water still in low spots of lawn even though we have had several days now with no additional rain. Yesterday the temps got into the upper 80's, and humid, but it cooled nicely when sun went down. Today is supposed to be worse in terms of heat and humidit.
8/29/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Hot,hot, hot! Yesterday it got to at least 92, but they said it felt like 101. But no rain or thunderstorms.

8/30/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 More zeroes! This has been a long stretch, especially compared to the monsoon time. Another hot,one in store for us. 72 already. Mostly sunny. Very still. As yesterday, there is just a little dew on the grass and no condensation on the gauge.

9/18/2018 8:00 AM 0.31 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Raining on and off this morning. Sometimes hard, but no wind so it comes straight down. We also had some showers yesterday evening and overnight. Warm - about 72.
9/19/2018 8:00 AM 0.35 0.0 0.00 0.0 0.00 Not as much rain from the remains of Florence as they predicted - little more than half an inch over Monday and Tuesday. However, the ground is spcertainly saturated with standing water in the low spots around our yard.

10/30/2017 11/01/2017 5:13 PM 3 4.60 M M I was away for several days.
12/31/2017 1/01/2018 3:40 PM 2 0.04 3.2 0.23 My last measurement was on 12/30 , just as snow was beginning. Today when we returned, I had 0.5" on my snow board. I thought the storm was going to l Ave more than that, but perhaps it blew off? I know it didn't melt as I tracked the temperatures here and not above 10 degrees I think.
2/15/2018 2/16/2018 8:00 AM 2 0.29 0.0 0.00 I was away yesterday, thus multi-day report. Raining lightly now and above freezing.
3/29/2018 4/08/2018 8:15 AM 11 0.99 0.0 0.00 Precipitation in gauge had frozen into ice. I know there were several events of snow and rain while I was gone and am a little surprised there is not more in the gauge. Ground is frozen although crocuses are up and in bud. Tulip and daffodils are up and some small flag iris are blooming.
5/11/2018 5/12/2018 8:30 AM 2 0.16 0.0 0.00 It is not raining now. Not sure how long ago it did rain, but it was not much as surfaces are barely wet. Very overcast, will probably rain more today. I was away Wednesday night and all Thursday. My husband said there was a storm Wednesday night, but it must not have rained much here considering the small amount in my gauge that includes today's early rain.
5/27/2018 5/29/2018 8:00 AM 3 0.02 0.0 0.00 Very little precipitation while I was away. Plants were quite dry on my return late yesterday. I had thought there was going to be rain on 5/27 or 28, but there certainly wasn't very much. Hope we are not heading into another drought.
7/16/2018 7/25/2018 8:00 AM 10 2.75 0.0 0.00 When I left, a D0 drought status was in effect and now we may experience flooding today. A downpour just ended before I collect d the multi-day amount. When we r turned last night, I was astounded at the jungle that has grown up here! Apparently, all the plants have enjoyed the rain. I don't see any signs of flooding right now, but will keep alert during the day.
8/18/2018 8/20/2018 8:00 AM 3 1.15 0.0 0.00 I heard that I missed some strong storms while away and the amount of precipitation is consistent with that. Low areas in our yard are very wet with standing water in some places. Today is overcast and looks as though we could have more rain. Very still.
9/2/2018 9/11/2018 8:00 AM 10 2.94 0.0 0.00 Seems like small amount of rain total for having been away 9 days (2.94). Today it is misting a little and overcast. Or maybe it is fog.
