11/23/2010 8:00 AM M M M M M I think that something is odd - I only had .08 inch of rain in the gauge this morning. The wind was really blowing yesterday while it rained, but still, as hard as it seemed to be raining, and when I looked at other amounts in the area, I think there is something suspect about .08, so I listed it NA.

6/9/2011 6/11/2011 8:00 AM 3 1.92 M M 6/9/11 high frequency lightening kept me from checking gauge til well past my 8 am report time - there was 1.38 inches when I finally went out to check. 6/10/11 at 8 am had 0.51 more inches but our computer modem had died in the night so I could not submit report. this am there was 0.03 in gauge for a total of 1.92 inches or precip.
7/11/2011 7/15/2011 8:00 AM 5 0.45 M M We have been without power since about 7:45 AM on Monday July 11 until 5:38 AM today - 4 days - we have never had an outage for this long! It was a powerful storm that turned the morning sky very dark. For those of us in the country, in addition to no lights, phone, internet connections, and AC, it means no water and no flushing toilets. We had to dump out hundreds of dollars of food. The storm on Monday put 0.45 inches of rain in the gauge, and we got a trace of rain on Tuesday about 4:00 PM.
8/19/2011 8/20/2011 8:00 AM 2 0.05 M M sky overcast and thundering now.
9/26/2011 10/01/2011 8:00 AM 6 3.53 M M On 9/30/11 we leftDoor County WI with the entire peninsula out of power from the high winds - some areas of Egg Harbor and Jacksonport had power restored by 9 am. I waited to empty gauge this AM because it was sprinkling when we arrived in Bull Valley. On 9/30 about 5:10 pm a brief shower passed with hail the size of tapioca.
