2/3/2010 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 0.00 12.5 2.69 Quick note on snowpack: The area where I live is generally north facing so the snow stays longer/better. The average snowpack here is 12.5 inches while in other areas (not north facing) it is closer to 10 inches. Thus, the total SWE is probably higher than normal.

2/8/2010 7:00 AM 0.13 1.9 M 14.0 2.92 Melted value from core is from yard where average snow depth is about 14 inches. Also took core sample from sunnier, flatter area 100 yards from house. Here, 12 inches of snow yielded 2.67 inches core sample. Thus, most melting has probably been from the sun. Also interesting is the fact that we haven't even got 2.92 inches of SWE since the snow began to accumulate on Dec. 9.

A heavy snow shower this afternoon/evening which totaled 1.1 inches snow, 0.07 SWE. Another 0.4 inches of snow overnight which I couldn't get any water out of. Also of note, today was the first day at 40 degrees or above since December 1, 78 consecutive days. This is the longest streak I've recorded in my almost 10 years of weather watching.

Also, lightning struck a telephone pole about 500 feet away from the rain gauge. The pole is now split right down the middle! Quite a storm.

At first it only dropped hail 1/4 to 1/2 inch in diameter with light rain. However, at about 1:10 it started dumping rain with hail as big as marbles on average and a few stones up to quarter size! The hail accumulated to about 1/2 inch deep before the t.storm moved away. I got my inner tube out of my rain gauge in time to catch most of the hail so the precipitation is both rain and whatever hail fell in the outer gauge. The storm was over by 1:24. I'm guessing that the majority of the rain fell from 1:09 to 1:19, an unexpected amount from the storm for this location!
