10/13/2012 7:00 AM 0.99 M M M M Friday's storm was one of the most intense storms I have ever seen. We had about an inch of pea-sized hail everywhere - landscape was totally white - and 4 + inches of hail piled up in corners, against walls etc.(I have photos). Many deciduous trees had their leaves completely pulverized and are denuded today. Winds were gusting up to 51 mph. We have windows with leaf debris ground into them from the wind, rain and hail. The ground is totally littered with wet debris - big cleanup today! Our area dirt roads were washed out almost completely in places and other places are covered with grapefruit sized rocks. Please note: this is an area that almost never gets hail, so this size and amount of hail was a very extraordinary experience.

6/29/2013 7:00 AM 0.10 M M M M Received 13.7% of our yearly precipitation total yesterday. Sounds like a lot, no? This is the biggest rainfall since 9 March. Grateful for rain nonetheless. It cleared away the smoke and cooled us off a lot. Humid this morning at 30%.
6/30/2013 7:00 AM 0.02 M M M M Now up to .75 precipitation for the year, which is more than half over....
7/1/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M 50% chance of precipitation, lots of very dark clouds, dry lightning and no precipitation, nada.... It is a very sad day for the wildland community with 19 firefighters dead in Arizona. If you are moved to donate, here is how. Funds donated to the Wildland Firefighter Foundation go directly to the families to help with expenses. http://t.co/me6GY1N7YG

7/6/2013 7:00 AM 0.12 M M M M The most rain since 9 MARCH and it was only .12 The drought here is very severe and not letting up. Our big junipers are very stressed and some may die. They must be very old, so this is clearly a very serious drought.
7/7/2013 7:00 AM 0.16 M M M M We got to over an inch of precipitation for the year yesterday! Big news for us. Driest year in 20 I have watched.
7/8/2013 7:00 AM 0.06 M M M M A thunderstorm came from the south at about 4AM, very lovely. The sky at dawn to the N and E was very red, "Red sky in morning, sailor take warning..." No sailing here, so probably no more rain for us.
7/9/2013 7:00 AM 0.01 M M M M Situation getting sadder and sadder by the day as it rains all around my area and never rains here any more. We at ONE INCH for the year....one of the driest places on earth.
7/10/2013 7:00 AM 0.04 M M M M Massive dark clouds, thunder and rain all around, but hardly any at this location, once again. Might get into Guiness Book of World Records for dryness at this rate. Definitely ready for summer to end....
7/11/2013 7:00 AM 0.16 M M M M We have had about 44% of our yearly total precipitation in the last 11 days...imagine how much that would be in a normal precipitation year! Grateful!

7/20/2013 7:00 AM 0.05 M M M M Still below an inch and a half for the year. Tragedy is striking in the form of thousands of acres of old juniper trees dying off. This is the worst drought in hundreds of years, as evidenced by the die off of old junipers. We are going to have a wildfire crisis in a year or two from the die-off.

7/25/2013 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M 60% chance of rain, flash flood warnings, heavy rain predicted by NOAA ABQ and not one drop. Lots of drying wind, though. The drought marches relentlessly on: less than 1.5 inches for the year. Atacama NM here. Norbert Wiener warned that "the self-amplification of small details" would foil any attempt to predict weather. It appears to be true of our northern NM forecasts.
7/26/2013 7:00 AM 1.00 M M M M I feel as proud of the 40% of our yearly precipitation we received last night as a new parent! If we were in NYC the 40% would have amounted to 19.6 INCHES of rain... Think how our soils and plants must feel today! There was tremendous multiple pronged lightning for over 40 minutes. Many strikes were very thick, too.
7/27/2013 7:00 AM 0.57 M M M M Another lovely rain in the evening. Hopefully the inch and a half in 24 hours will revive the dying juniper trees in this area. We received more rain in the last 24 hours than the total of our yearly precipitation to date before this big rain. That is a lot of rain at once!

8/5/2013 7:00 AM 0.03 M M M M Will we make it to 4 inches of precipitation this year? Stay tuned - now at 3.3"
8/6/2013 7:00 AM 0.42 M M M M I was just wondering if we would ever reach 4" for the year and with this magnificent rainfall, we are at 3.75"! The storm didn't announce itself beforehand with dark skies, wind, or anything else, just a few dark small clouds here and there. It began raining just a bit and then had intensifying periods of rain after it got to .10" Absolutely wonderful rainfall! Our area's junipers are probably going to make it now, mostly.
8/7/2013 7:00 AM 0.10 M M M M Now we are up to 3.75 "for the year! Won't ever be in the very exclusive "One Inch Club" formed by ABQ NOAA but glad to have more than we thought we would have this year! Our ecosystem might not collapse just yet...drought still VERY serious.

8/9/2013 7:00 AM 0.19 M M M M Very grateful for another good rain, which brought us to 4 inches for the year! The driest year I have recorded in the past 13 years was 4" so that was an important milestone. I hope this means most of the old trees here will survive and we won't have thousands of acres of dead trees. Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

9/14/2013 7:00 AM 1.43 M M M M We went from 4.5 inches to almost 7.5 inches in 4 days! It is wonderful. Perhaps some of the thousands of dying junipers now will make it onwards, saving our landscape from a large scale disaster. What a blessing this rain has been: the answer to the prayers of many in NM.
9/15/2013 7:00 AM 0.75 M M M M 40% probability brought us .75 of lovely rain! We have had 3.69 inches of rain in 6 days, bringing us from 4.52 to 8.21 for the year. I was unsure whether we would reach 5" for the year... The one hour fuels have gone wild and are a lurid vivid green for the first time since 2012. Our land is transformed and so quickly. The fog is so thick this morning that visibility is a quarter mile. It smells and looks totally maritime; no hint of the dry, dust devil spouting, fire-prone desert covered with dying trees that it was just 6 days ago.

1/1/0001 12:00 AM This was the biggest hail storm I have ever seen in 15 years at this site. The hail was so hard we worried our windows might break. It was piled up 4 or more inches in some places and about 14 inches in one arroyo where it washed down. The entire landscape out here was white as if it had snowed, after the storm, the hail was so thick. The hail fell for an unusually long time, too. 3/4" Penny Size 3/8" 1/4" Pea Size Hard|White Ice 10 2min shredded leaves Continuous True After rain Same time as smaller hail 50-60 1
