11/26/2017 8:30 AM 0.02 T M 0.0 M Some flakes in the air at gauge check time. Up to 55 yesterday, calmer than the day before, and when the sun was out for a brief time mid-day, it actually felt warm.

11/27/2017 6:15 AM T T M 0.0 M Some flurries yesterday. There was a dusting in spots up the hill in Poplar Ridge, but nothing here.

12/5/2017 6:10 AM T 0.0 M 0.0 M Some drops of rain just starting as I checked the gauge. Strong S wind began last night and continues. Temp dropped to 47 before rebounding a bit -- 50 now.
12/6/2017 6:10 AM 0.05 0.0 M 0.0 M Rain at times yesterday, but nothing heavy. 54 was yesterday's high, and it was still in the 50s at 7:30. 2 hours later it was 44, and now it's 35. Cloudy, still windy.
12/7/2017 6:15 AM T 0.1 M T M There were some flakes in the air at 09:30 last night, and a dusting on the ground this morning. It took hands and knees and a close look to see that the snow on the board reached the .1 on the ruler. Only our second tenth of the season.
12/8/2017 6:15 AM 0.01 0.4 M 0.5 M Snow shower late afternoon brought the .4. 29 the overnight low, 31 now and cloudy.

12/11/2017 6:10 AM 0.02 0.6 M T M Light then steadier snow yesterday, on and off. Measured around 4pm and had .4", most of which had melted off by later evening. Light snow this morning, another .2".
12/12/2017 6:15 AM 0.03 0.4 M 0.5 M It is 34 degrees now and snowing. It picked up while I was checking the gauge. Steady snow for a while yesterday up the hill in Poplar Ridge, but it was melted off the board by late afternoon, though there was snow in the gauge. Snow overnight gives the .4".
12/13/2017 6:15 AM 0.04 T M 0.5 M Temp rose to 36 yesterday after I left, so whatever snow fell after the gauge check turned to ice in the gauge and melted on the snowboard. A strong but brief squall passed through in Poplar Ridge late morning, but no evidence of the same down here. Snowing pretty well right now, but only a T to show. Windy and 16 degrees, low of 15.
12/14/2017 6:25 AM 0.05 0.9 M 1.0 M Light snow overnight. Low of 15, 18 now. Lack of wind meant snow in the gauge, so I did not take a core sample.
12/15/2017 6:10 AM T 0.2 M 1.5 M Tough call on yesterday morning's snow, as things had moved around some by the time I got home. Temp rose over 20 late evening, back to 14 now. Clear, w/ a cloud over the lake.
12/16/2017 8:00 AM T T M 1.0 M Some very light snow last evening. No accumulation.
12/17/2017 8:00 AM 0.01 1.0 M 2.0 M Very fluffy snow, which came and went. I measured at 2:30pm and at 4:30 pm, both times .5". Very little snow in the gauge.
12/18/2017 6:10 AM T T M 1.5 M Temperature is up to 36 degrees now after 5 days of temps in the teens and 20s. Some light snow in the gauge last evening, but no more than a T on the board.
12/19/2017 6:10 AM 0.02 0.0 M 0.0 M Amazing how quickly everything melted. Up to 42 yesterday, and it was 42 at 9:15pm w/ only a T of rain in the gauge. Light rain overnight and 43 degrees now.
12/20/2017 6:10 AM T 0.0 M 0.0 M Up to 53 here yesterday, but it clouded up in the afternoon and was pretty windy. Some light rain late afternoon.
12/21/2017 6:15 AM T T M 0.0 M Some light snow last evening, and some up the hill yesterday morning, but I did not see any flakes here. 26 now.
12/22/2017 6:15 AM 0.10 1.6 M 1.5 M Calm morning, snow mostly ended, 29 degrees. The .10 is from the gauge -- there was a goodly pile in there.
12/23/2017 9:00 AM 0.28 0.0 M T M Temp static at 32-33 degrees overnight, 33 now. Some light ice accumulation yesterday, but temps were above freezing by mid-afternoon. Light rain now.
12/24/2017 8:30 AM 0.44 1.6 M 1.5 M Rain was pretty steady through early yesterday, then changed to snow around 2pm or so. .5 after about an hour, and the 1.6 was in by 5, when it was stopping.
12/25/2017 7:30 AM 0.02 0.5 0.03 2.0 M .02 of new snow last night at 10:30pm, and this morning it was tough to measure for the first time this season, as the wind scoured the board clean. There was melting in the gauge before the temp started dropping.
12/26/2017 8:30 AM 0.01 0.3 M 2.0 M Snowing lightly late last night here after a pretty difficult Route 20 ride from Pompey. Radar showed we were following a consistent band. All blown away this morning. .01 in the gauge, and .3 in a protected spot.
12/27/2017 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.0 M
12/28/2017 8:30 AM T 0.1 M 2.0 M Very light snow late evening and overnight. Low was 4, 6 at 8:30am. The lake is making clouds on a clear, cold, breezy morning.
12/29/2017 8:00 AM T 0.1 M 2.0 M More very light snow off Cayuga Lake, just a coating. Low was 8, yesterday's high 12.
12/30/2017 7:45 AM 0.02 0.3 M 2.0 M Light snow overnight. Down to 5 last evening, then started rising. 17 now.
12/31/2017 8:30 AM 0.04 1.5 0.18 3.5 M Wind has kicked back in, so measuring is a little tougher. It was snowing pretty steadily last evening for a while, and then overnight. .4 at 11pm. The 1.5 is from the board
1/1/2018 8:20 AM T 0.2 M 3.5 M Some light snow late last evening.
1/2/2018 6:05 AM T 0.1 M 3.5 M 12 degrees , calm, light snow. Only a coating overnight. It was snowing after 9pm as well, but maybe last night's wind took care of that.
1/3/2018 6:00 AM T T M 3.0 M Some flakes in the gauge last night, but very little. 11 degrees and mostly clear this morning.
1/4/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.5 M 21 degrees, cloudy, mostly calm.
1/5/2018 8:15 AM T 0.8 M 3.0 M Sorry for this one. I think it snowed more than the .08 I was able to measure in a semi-protected spot. The wind was and is howling, and the board is scoured clean. My guess says this is an under-report and an under-catch in the gauge, but the wind has dashed hopes of mu confidence in accurate measures. Low of 1, 2 right now, very windy.
1/6/2018 8:15 AM T T M T M 1 was our low overnight, and the wind has held up. Some flakes in the air, but very little in the gauge . . . Just some flakes.
1/7/2018 8:00 AM T T M 2.0 M Hear is working overtime but can't keep up w/ the cold and wind. Only a T of snow here in the gauge.
1/8/2018 6:00 AM T T M M M Temp bottomed out at -3 overnight into Sunday, then rose to the 30 mark by this morming. We have been here 25 years and not had the heat issues from cold and wind we had Friday and Saturday.
1/9/2018 6:00 AM T T M 1.0 M
1/10/2018 5:55 AM T 0.2 M 1.0 M More melting. 39 yesterday's high, down to 28 overnight.
1/11/2018 6:05 AM T 0.0 M T M Rain just beginning, very light. Warmed overnight to 43, stuff S wind. Grass is clear of snow -- just a few ditches and drift spots.
1/12/2018 6:05 AM 0.66 0.0 M 0.0 M Pouring out there right now, and 57 degrees. Temp was static overnight between 55 and 58. Drops of rain around 9:15 last night, just got heavier. Some fog as well. Roads very wet and pooling. All snow gone, even in ditches.
1/13/2018 9:00 AM 0.97 6.1 M 6.0 M .46 at ~5pm when I removed the funnel and inner cylinder. Add that to the .51 in the gauge overnight. 1.63 total for the event. Tough to measure snow, as it's pretty windy. Measured different spots to average 6.1". 62 degrees after 3pm yesterday, 14 this morning.
1/14/2018 8:00 AM T 0.3 M 6.0 M Temp down to -7 overnight, and -2 now. Much calmer than it was. Some passing snow showers yesterday, but not much accumulation here. Very little in the gauge. Bright sunshine.
1/15/2018 8:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M 5.5 M A clear, clean, cold day yesterday, w/ a similar start to today. -4 degrees the overnight low, as it dipped below zero relatively early in the evening. 5 degrees at 8:30.
1/16/2018 6:10 AM 0.08 3.9 M 7.5 M It was snowing pretty decently at 9:30 last night, w/ .3 on the ground. 3.9 on the board this morning, which was flash frozen to the ground Friday night thus tough to put back on top of the snow after I measured. Still snowing, 24 degrees.
1/17/2018 6:15 AM 0.06 1.1 M 8.0 M 17, snowing lightly. Calm. Today's gauge total shows that yesterday's was an undercatch. Have not had time on work mornings to do a core sample of new snow. Apologies. The 8" total is an average from 5 different points.
1/18/2018 6:10 AM 0.00 0.0 M 8.0 M 11 degrees, and that's the overnight low.
1/19/2018 6:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 7.0 M Temp rose overnight to 24. QUiet morning.
1/20/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 6.0 M Hitting 40 this morning already. Sunny, mostly calm.

1/22/2018 6:05 AM 0.01 0.0 M 3.5 M Some very light mist was starting at about 9:30 last night. Fog, damp now, w/ .01 in the gauge. 36 degrees and calm. Took a core sample yesterday @ 5" average and got .91. Sorry I can't do it most Mondays.
1/23/2018 6:15 AM 0.07 0.0 M T M Snow is all but gone, the melt off almost complete. Snow only in some drifts and isolated patches on green grass. Temp rose to 49 overnight . . . 47 now, windy but not raining.
1/24/2018 6:15 AM 0.02 T M T M .02 in the inner cylinder last night when I brought it in at 9:30, when it was 38 degrees. 27 now, still windy, and just some flakes in the gauge. Only snow left is in drifted areas and ditches. Almost all clear.
1/25/2018 6:05 AM T T M T M Some light to steady snow yesterday morning, but only a dusting which did not stay. More up the hill, even some icy roads and accidents. 19 now.
1/26/2018 6:20 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M 22 degrees, calm, mostly clear.
1/27/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M 41 degrees, windy from the S, mostly cloudy. Warmer now than it got yesterday.

1/30/2018 6:15 AM 0.02 0.8 M 1.0 M Snowing pretty steadily, 23 degrees.
1/31/2018 6:15 AM T 1.0 M 2.0 M Another tough measure because of increasing wind yesterday. Measured during later afternoon to get an average of just under 2", @ 1.8", so another 1" down here during the day. W/ the wind and some drifting, may be under, but the wind certainly made for an undercatch in the gauge. 13 outside.
2/1/2018 6:10 AM T T M 2.0 M Snow and blowing snow up the hill for a while yesterday afternoon. I know it snowed down here as well, because there was snow in the gauge and I was told it snowed. The S wind was blowing strong, which made any attempt at accurate measurements impossible by the time I got home. 33 now after a steadily warming night. It was mid-20s mid-afternoon, and 30 by 9:30pm.
2/2/2018 6:10 AM T 0.2 M T M Up to 47 yesterday afternoon around 3pm, then down into the 20s by 9, and snowing. Not heavy,.2", and no more this morning.
2/3/2018 7:15 AM T T M T M There was word of a squall rolling through yesterday morning, but by the time I was home later afternoon there was no evidence on the ground or in the gauge, despite the cold. It was pretty windy. Warmed overnight from 13 at 10:30pm to 17 now. Cloudy.
2/4/2018 8:00 AM T T M T M Spitting when I checked the gauge, but nothing more than that yet. 31 degrees, cloudy, w/ a stiff wind from the SSE.
2/5/2018 6:15 AM 0.01 0.3 M 0.5 M Light snow through the afternoon yesterday, but the temperature reached 34, so there was some melting. .2" of snow around 4:15pm, and .3 measured at 9:30pm. .1 in the gauge, melted, but a layer of snow on the S side, from the wind. 17 now, wind from the N, clear except for clouds in the SE.

2/10/2018 8:30 AM 0.06 1.3 M 4.5 M Light but steady snow much of yesterday. More up the hill -- over an inch here. Temps warmed from mid-afternoon on, from low-mid 20s to 33 by 11:30pm, and 38 this morning. .06 in the gauge, and melting has begun.
2/11/2018 8:00 AM 0.02 T M 3.0 M Significant melting yesterday, as it hit 42 degrees. Dropped in the evening, and still below freezing, so there has been some light freezing rain and drizzle, and some mix w/ snow/sleet for a bit.

3/3/2018 8:15 AM 0.01 0.3 M 5.0 M Once the wind kicked in yesterday, measuring became pretty tough. We are definitely affected by elevation here, so we did not get the snow places east or even up the hill got. My best effort at storm totals are 5.2" of snow and .75" of precip. 32, breezy, and gray this morning.
3/4/2018 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M
3/5/2018 6:15 AM 0.00 0.0 M 3.5 M Down to 19 overnight, under 20 for the first time since Feb. 13. Back up to 26 now. Some bare spots, drifts along the edges of the fields.

3/7/2018 6:15 AM 0.07 T M 1.0 M Light snow/mix last night ~9:45 or so was just starting to show on the grass, but no sign of any accumulation this morning. The .07 in the gauge shows there must have been some light rain before it changed, and it was only 34 at that time. It was snowing harder up the hill. 36 and cloudy now.
3/8/2018 6:20 AM 0.05 0.2 M 2.5 M Snowing last night @ 9:15pm, .2" measured, but there was some melting as it came down. Temp was 34. .05" in the gauge this morning. Cloudy, calm, and 32 degrees now.

3/15/2018 7:10 AM 0.02 1.5 M 2.0 M A lot of blowing yesterday. Serious snow at times up the hill, and when I came home through Aurora it was all grass. We are in between. .5" at 3:30 or so, another .8" by 9:15pm, and another .2" overnight the best I could measure, to total 1.5". Low of 27.
3/16/2018 6:30 AM 0.01 0.9 M 1.0 M Woke to almost an inch of very light fluff. Only .01 in the gauge, so it seems pretty certain my precip total is under and has been on days like this. Just not enough time before work to get the double measure on the core. Sorry. March sun has melted snow each of the past couple of days by mid afternoon. 27 the low last night.
3/17/2018 8:00 AM T T M T M Temp dropped to 22 during the day, w/ wind and on/off snow during the morning. Clearing later.

Still raining, 39 degrees. It was an actually pleasant -- though wet -- 55 at 10 last night, the warmest temperature of the entire month, and it looks like it may stay that way.

This morning's total brings us to .77" for June through 4 days, more than the .69 of the whole month in 2016, so maybe not.
