Observation Date Observation Time Precipitation Snowfall Snowfall SWE Snow Depth Snow SWE Notes
10/1/2016 7:45 AM 0.68 M M M M Rain started 922 or a bit earlier. Drizzle, fairly hard. 1046 0.67" (again)
10/7/2016 7:48 AM 0.20 M M M M Hurricane Matthew. has hit Florida's coast but no I'll effects here. rain/mist started gently around 1am. anticipated it to be more, though it is still misting and will probably rain harder later today.
10/8/2016 7:58 AM 0.99 M M M M yesterday, despite threats of massive rains, we only got around 0.20" by around 4 p.m. I neglected to write it down so I don't remember details, but it was less than a quarter of an inch for almost the whole entire day. I think at about 9 p.m. it was still a good bit less than half an inch. It seems most rain has come in the last hour as Hurricane Matthew swirls off the coast of North Carolina.
10/9/2016 8:00 AM 6.65 M M M M HURRICANE MATTHEW rains, Friday and Sat. Surprised that "only" 8" TOTAL for the two days; neighbors across street reported 9.9" (different gauge); local metereologist with station 2mi away reported 9 - 10" as well. Note that my land is quite wooded and we placed in the LEAST wooded area, but it appears that my numbers are lower than the true rainfall. Also, please note that in my sig weather report, I note that the 10pm reading of .13" MIGHT not have been dumped and therefore MIGHT be repeated in the next morning's .31". Sorry! Saturday was a rough day... (CORRECT; THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR SUNDAY ABOUT THE SATURDAY HURRICANE.)
10/10/2016 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Whew, Hurricane Matthew was crazy Saturday. Thankfully Sunday morning water out of basement, though no electricity to use fans to dry out completely. (Lots of generators in 'hood, but the neighbors need them, too!) ALl day Sunday was nice, cool, low low humidity, and windy! Windows all open and airing out the houses.
10/11/2016 8:00 AM M M M M M Thank goodness power came back last night!
11/4/2016 8:00 AM 0.07 M M M M A touch rain:. surprising, welcomed. would have liked more
11/14/2016 7:43 AM 0.22 M M M M and still raining. much needed, a month after Hurricane Matthew.

12/1/2016 8:00 AM 0.07 M M M M DECEMBER?? How did that happen??! Very little, all or almost all after 7:30pm. Had hoped for more, but two days of slight slight rain is at least helpful after some weeks without.

Maybe.7" at 7pm ish...? anyway, nice gentle soaking rain, which we needed so! (apparently torrential downpour elsewhere in town, so we lucked out, I guess!)

11/25/2016 11/27/2016 4:00 PM 3 0.00 M M Happy Thanksgiving! We left Thanksgiving Day (emptied gauge that morning). We got rain down at the coast, on early early Saturday morning, so we had hoped to have gotten rain at home as well. No dice. Bummer.
12/30/2016 1/03/2017 7:46 AM 5 2.35 M M Happy New Year! Good riddance to 2016. Apparently I forgot to check the gauge for a few days. WE left town on the 31st, returning 2 Jan around 4pm. At that point there was 2.09", and we got an additional 0.26" after that. May we have decent rain, spread out evenly, this year.
4/28/2017 5/01/2017 8:00 AM 4 0.10 M M Started raining around 6pm, maybe, on Sunday, as we or back into the neighborhood. Apparently that is all the rain we got. Just as well, as we had gotten plenty earlier in week!
5/27/2017 5/30/2017 8:00 AM 4 0.16 M M Massive storm in the mountains Saturday night (27 May); crazy wind gusts shaking the tent. I'm impressed that it didn't tear it, even though we were tucked in a wooded campsite. Apparently back east no rain until Monday (29 May) evening; maybe we drove with the rain all the way back. Approximately .1" (didn't read it, just glanced, so no accurate reading) around 9:30pm when we got home. UPDATE: Well looking at the maps, that is incorrect; the rain came earlier in the weekend. Anyway...
