10/7/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Clear, calm, 33 degrees F. I suppose someone has reported it, but: Driving home from North Dakota yesterday I drove through a substantial hail storm between Cody and Meeteetse. A good inch of hail on the highway, slick and slushy. I was able to drive out of it, but the clouds behind me were black, black, black. The lighting was dramatic, so it may have been just a trick of perspective, but I was happy to be able to head on home.
10/8/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Sorry for the late report. Dear old Windows initiated update/install/restart and I had to get to the farmers market. Observation was at 0700.
10/9/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M 40 degrees F, calm, clear. What a lovely autumn day yesterday ! Looks as if we're headed for another. I really should plant the garlic...
10/10/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M 46 degrees F, calm, a few clouds (some interesting lenticulars). One more lovely morning. We had a little breeze yesterday afternoon.
10/11/2016 7:00 AM T M M M M Just a few sprinkles around 6:15 last night. I have no idea if more came in the night; there's no sign of it. The wind came up, off and on, in the afternoon. Currently, 38 degrees F with a very slight breeze.
10/12/2016 6:30 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Covered parts of the garden last night. 30 degrees F this morning. Very light breeze and crystal clear.
10/13/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M 38 degrees, calm, clear. I forgot to mention yesterday morning's frost and will now try to do a frost report for 12 October.

10/15/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Blowy, off and on yesterday afternoon. One day I will treat myself to an anemometer...
10/16/2016 7:00 AM 0.18 M M M M The first time I noticed rain in the night was 0220. (Don't really know when it started.) It has rained, off and on since then; sometimes with wind, sometimes without. Currently we have very light rain with a light breeze. 47 degrees F.
10/17/2016 7:00 AM 0.71 M M M M Received a little more rain after 0700 yesterday. (.02 and a rainbow) Then some windy hours. It spit moisture from 3pm on, but it was just blowing in off the face. Real rain began about 9pm. It was still raining at midnight. Currently 42 degrees F, calm, mostly overcast.
10/18/2016 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M 34 degrees F, calm, clear. Winds started up around 0730 yesterday morning and continued until around dark. There was no build up or fade to the winds. They showed up, blew hard all day with sustained strength and then just moved out. I'm an anomaly. I love the wind. Working outside yesterday took some logistics.

11/18/2016 7:00 AM 0.16 1.5 0.11 7.0 0.82 The winds came up after yesterday's observation, causing some pretty good drifting. I don't know whether my measurements tell a very accurate tale. 15 degrees F, clear and calm this morning.

12/8/2016 7:00 AM T T T M M Had to be in town by 7 yesterday, so observation was early. I don't know when the snow quit falling, but soon after I left, it seems. This morning, our first below-zero temps. -5, calm and clear.

12/16/2016 7:00 AM 0.06 0.6 0.06 M M Yesterday, the wind came up around 1200-1230 pm. Blew in spits of rain, no accumulation, until dark and then the wind died. No snow or evidence of rain at midnight; I don't know when the snow began. While at observation time there is a breeze, we haven't had gusty wind overnight. New snowfall seems very even and light. It was 45 degrees yesterday afternoon, so there is now lots of fresh ice around the buildings. Took an easy, cartoon slip/fall going out to the shop 5 minutes ago. It is currently 15 degrees F, snowing lightly with a breeze. Clouds seem light as I can easily see the glow of the moon.
12/17/2016 6:45 AM 0.32 M M 4.5 0.46 I couldn't locate my snow board. (sigh) Measured total snow. I will look for it when I return this afternoon. Sorry. Cold this morning ! -15 degrees F. Calm, though, with light clouds.

1/9/2017 8:00 AM 0.02 M M M M Winds melted much snow in the night. 42 degrees currently. Ground is treacherous as water is pooled on ice. I believe all moisture we received was as rain.
1/10/2017 7:00 AM 0.01 M M M M A few flakes of snow at 4:14pm, changing to light rain. We had occasional bits of wind during the day until about 12:45am when it was fairly constant. Currently calm, 27 degrees F, light cloud cover with ice everywhere. We have a low area, bermed by our driveway that can collect excess ground water every 4-5 years. The "pond" is full, about 15 by 20 feet. Knocking down the enormous snow curb the county snowplow gave us when last they plowed, I watched the North Fork Road flow like a creek. With all the old ice covering the ground, there is lots of water flowing everywhere. I'm curious how things are downstream...
1/11/2017 6:15 AM T M M M M Received a few snow flakes at 3:45 pm and again at 7:15 pm. We had wind for a good portion of the night, starting around 7 pm. I don't know when it moved on. Currently 20 degrees F, calm, mostly clear.

2/10/2017 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M (Internet service in and out.) 44 degrees F, very light breeze. Major chinook yesterday. Started coming on between 3 and 4 pm and lasted just about 12 hours, until 3 or 4 AM. It was still a little blowy at 3, but nothing major. Feeding the neighbor's horses at 4:30 pm was a comedy routine. Our ephemeral ponds are full and the only leftover snow is ice on the driveway and various patches between larger bunchgrasses and in the lee of sage. For the second time this water-year, North Fork Road ran like a stream as water flowed the easiest path downhill. Had to edit report after I saw Lander's weather history from NOAA site: Our winds were already howling by 4PM yesterday. I don't mean to sound dramatic, but I worked 30 austral summers in Antarctica, and our winds were here were much higher than Lander's report. I saw two elk blow by. (Okay, so I am being dramatic.) And I'm finally letting myself spend the money for an anemometer. Yea!
2/11/2017 7:00 AM T M M M M There was a little mist right after yesterday's observation. Snow loss on Red Butte and the Face continues to be impressive. Yesterday North Fork Road was seriously eroded (gravel part); closed to all but local traffic.

Currently, light and variable breeze (mostly calm) and has started to rain as I type. When I was out at 0650, it was not raining.
3/24/2017 7:00 AM 0.89 M M M M Emptied the gauge at 1130 to remove the inner tube and funnel as snow had started to gather rather than melt directly.

4/29/2017 7:00 AM 0.74 7.2 0.87 8.5 1.11 Winds came up drifting and flattening the snow, so true snowfall is hard to figure. Now I'll find out if I can get down the drive to the county road...

At observation time: 40 degrees F and breezy (max 15.8 mph, but quite variable, off and on down to 2-3 mph). Springtime. We're on high ground, but friends below are concerned and preparing for serious flooding. Maybe cooler temps will slow the onslaught...

6/7/2017 6:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Long rolls of thunder began around 2100. The storm rolled on north, perhaps coming down Trout Creek or the Little Wind. Distant lightning continued until at least 2330.
6/8/2017 7:00 AM 0.57 M M M M Very odd last night: I went out to check the grill at 1810 and it sounded as if the North Fork were to our south. I don't know if it was a wind roaring down Baldwin Creek or ??? Ten minutes later very large hail (1.2 inches) began to fall out of the sky. I thought the first couple were gunshots as they hit the galvanized roofs. Fortunately, these large hailstones were occasional rather than constant. We only had rumbles of thunder, nothing close. A real hailstorm hit (.25 to .3 inch pieces) from 1850 to 1900, when hard rain commenced. All with the occasional distant rumbles of thunder. I assume I missed measuring some of the moisture during the hailstorm. A tour of my gardens this AM showed a little damage, but I think the apple trees took the hit for most of the greens. (Apple trees had no real damage.) Dead calm and clear at observation time. I don't have a hail board as we have never had anything but small hail before.

6/7/2017 6:20 PM These notes are my daily report: Very odd last night: I went out to check the grill at 1810 and it sounded as if the North Fork were to our south. I don't know if it was a wind roaring down Baldwin Creek or ??? Ten minutes later very large hail (1.2 inches) began to fall out of the sky. I thought the first couple were gunshots as they hit the galvanized roofs. Fortunately, these large hailstones were occasional rather than constant. We only had rumbles of thunder, nothing close. A real hailstorm hit (.25 to .3 inch pieces) from 1850 to 1900, when hard rain commenced. All with the occasional distant rumbles of thunder. I assume I missed measuring some of the moisture during the hailstorm. A tour of my gardens this AM showed a little damage, but I think the apple trees took the hit for most of the greens. (Apple trees had no real damage.) Dead calm and clear at observation time. I don't have a hail board as we have never had anything but small hail before. 1" Quarter Size 3/8" 1/4" Pea Size Mixed 30 3min minor leaf damage.shredded leaves Continuous False Before rain Before smaller hail vertical
8/5/2017 7:46 PM 1940 rain, 1946 small hail (1/8 to 1/4"), 1949 strong hailstorm began (mixed sizes up to 3/4"), 1953 back to 1/4-3/8" hail, 1955 mostly rain, 1959 done. The ground was sodden as the final rain melted most of the hail covering. As no hail entered the gauge funnel, I'm guessing we received much more precip than measured/reported. 3/4" Penny Size 3/8" 1/4" Pea Size Mixed 11 1min minor leaf damage Continuous True After rain After smaller hail vertical
