1/8/2018 7:00 AM 0.03 0.3 M 3.0 M Fairly low confidence in both new snowfall and total snow measurements. Snowboard was clear this morning and what snow fell on top of the ice blew quite a bit overnight. Total snow measurement seems right but the nature of the snow pack changed significantly overnight. While depth remained the same as yesterday, the snow pack seems much less dense.

1/15/2018 7:00 AM T 1.0 M 1.0 M Today's measurements really feel more like a guess than an accurate measurement. This is a very light snow and even though the wind wasn't that strong it blew the snow all over. Even my snow board was 2/3 bare with a mini drift an inch deep in one corner. Around the farm the snow seemed to vary somewhat consistently from nothing to 2-3 inches where it piled up. The one inch reported is my best estimate but I am not at all confident. The trace reported in the gauge is accurate, I'm just not sure what its relationship to the actual snowfall is.
1/16/2018 7:00 AM T 0.5 M 1.5 M Strong winds through much of the day meant that old snow and new snow were well mixed and moved all over the farm. Both new and total snowfall amounts are questionable.

2/5/2018 7:00 AM 0.02 1.4 M 1.4 M This is a very fluffy snow but the water content in the gauge still seems a bit extreme. It was very windy during the snow and snow depth in the gauge was less than an inch. My snow depth looks a little out of line with other amounts reported near here. My measurements came from a fairly protected area but perhaps it was more of a snow gathering spot than I believe. In any case, the 1.4 is a generous estimate.

2/18/2018 7:00 AM 0.14 1.6 M 1.5 M .14 is from a melted core as the gauge was completely empty this morning. Much of the area around the gauge was also blown clear of snow so winds were higher than I thought. The 1.6 is probably understated as snow was melting quickly as it came down and I am not sure I caught it at the peak. Given what is still left of the ground I suspect we were closer to 2 inches but have to go with what I measured.

Recorded inch as both my best estimate and to ensure understanding that there is still considerable moisture to be released as the remaining snow melts.

I expected a trace in gauge so somewhat at a loss to explain the amount.

This matched my experience of a few drops on the windshield while I was driving in McLean County that afternoon and evening.

11/10/2017 11/15/2017 7:00 AM 6 0.23 M M This seems low as compared to what I see happened all around us. I was out of state so have no first hand knowledge but the reading is what was in the gauge.
12/25/2017 12/31/2017 7:00 AM 7 0.29 3.5 M Not a lot of confidence in the total snow as we have quite a bit of drifting. Still I think we are in the to 4 inch range.
