1/11/2018 7:34 AM T M M M M I'm not 100% sure that this was precipitation and not super heavy dew, but there was a chance of precip last night, and the level in the gauge was more than what I am used to with dew, so calling it trace of precip. Currently skies are partly cloudy and the winds are calm. It is a very beautiful sunrise today.
1/12/2018 7:34 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M I thought I was going to be able to measure snowfall today for the first time ever. We did have snow, but it was mostly sideways and only lasted for about 5 minutes - not measurable and no moisture to measure. Currently CCC: Clear, calm, and cold!

1/16/2018 6:54 AM T T T 0.0 0.00 I had a dusting of snow and/or sleet in the gauge this morning, just enough to cover the base of the 4" tube but not enough to measure, hence "T". Precipitation started as a very light liquid mist and turned to snow/sleet later in the day. The ground was still warm so all snow/sleet melted shortly after falling to the ground and only accumulated on surfaces separated (insulated) from the ground.

2/11/2018 7:22 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Overcast skies, wind, cold. The expected precip did not occur at my location (we had "sanding" trucks out all over the metroplex yesterday and last night in preparation for an ice-a-geddon). Maybe farther south?
2/12/2018 7:14 AM T M M M M We had a brief ice storm yesterday morning between 9:45 am and 10:15 am. There wasn't enough accumulation to get a depth measurement and it resulted in only a Trace of measurable water equivalent in my gauge though I had the funnel and inner tube in place when it started. When I went out to remove the funnel at about 10:00 am the ice was bouncing out of the funnel so I did not collect as much of the precipitation as I could have. Currently it is mostly clear skies with a few low clouds around the eastern and western horizons (maybe just some high ground fog?) and the winds are calm.

I guess it did help minimize evaporation and evapotranspiration. Currently skies are overcast and there is a light breeze.

7/11/2018 7:10 AM 0.05 M M M M We had a quick pop-up storm, including plenty of lightning, mid-afternoon yesterday that accounts for all of the precipitation observed this morning.

Total precipitation since my 8/7 report is 7.96" (7.39 was a multi-day report covering 8/8-8/14 and I am not sure what day the rain event began, nor if it was a solid 7 days or if there was an interruption anywhere). Currently skies are clear and winds are calm.
8/16/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Clear skies, calm winds. There is still a lot of field and pasture flooding from the rain events of the past 10 days.

9/5/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Overcast skies with enough break in the clouds in the east to offer a beautiful sunrise! Calm winds.
9/6/2018 7:02 AM 0.20 M M M M Very localized storms yesterday. While I only recorded .20 inches there were other areas of the Metroplex that had much more precipitation. I was out running errands when the storm began and the intensity of the rain falling was enough to keep me from returning to my car in one instance for about 20 minutes about 5 miles from my home. The storm cooled things off significantly (down to 74F per my Garmin bike computer at 6:00PM). Currently skies are mostly cloudy with calm winds and a beautiful sunrise.
9/7/2018 7:09 AM 0.02 M M M M While most of the rest of the Metroplex was getting dumped on, at least to the south, we got basically nothing. .02" recorded came overnight as I checked the gauge before bed and it was empty. Currently overcast skies with calm winds.
9/8/2018 6:57 AM 0.44 M M M M Rain most of the afternoon and into the evening yesterday. Additional rain fell overnight. Currently there is still mist falling with overcast skies and calm winds. Forecast is for more rain through today.
9/9/2018 6:15 AM 0.52 M M M M Currently overcast skies and calm winds. Rain is supposed to be over now. We'll see. I logged .98 in the last 3 days - we'll take it!
9/10/2018 7:07 AM T M M M M Overcast skies and calm winds.
9/11/2018 7:13 AM T M M M M A trace of precip from about 4:30pm yesterday fell as heavy mist or very light rain on-and-off for several hours. Currently there is a light mist falling with overcast skies and a light breeze.
9/12/2018 7:40 AM 0.08 M M M M Light rain is falling. Currently overcast skies and calm winds.
9/13/2018 7:30 AM 0.02 M M M M Precipitation fell yesterday morning during and shortly after I checked the gauge yesterday morning. It was a very light drizzle. No precip after about 11:00 am yesterday. Even though there was not much rain the temps were cooler and the skies overcast most of the day so that limited the evaporation. Currently skies are mostly cloudy and winds are calm.
9/14/2018 6:55 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Clear skies with calm winds. There are some clouds on the eastern horizon making for a nice sunrise this morning. Supposed to get rain later today and tomorrow (50%).
9/15/2018 7:05 AM 1.41 M M M M We had a rainy afternoon and evening yesterday. 1/2 of the rain (.72") fell in about 45 minutes, with the rest spread over the next several hours. Not sure when the precip finally ended - it was sometime after 9:00pm. Very intense downpours that were scattered throughout. Some field flooding occurred with water standing in low-lying areas. Currently skies are mostly clear with a few high clouds making for a beautiful sunrise. Winds are calm.
9/16/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 M M M M Clear skies, calm winds. expected rain yesterday never materialized at mu location though there were significant thunder heads forming to the east and southeast.

9/21/2018 7:00 AM T M M M M A very light sprinkling hit yesterday but not enough to register in the gauge (only wetted my windshield). Currently skies are overcast with a light breeze.
9/22/2018 7:00 AM 6.78 M M M M What a storm. Most of the rain fell between 4:00pm and 10:30pm yesterday, 5.64", with an additional 1.14 falling after 10:30. Lots of flooding in the area. I submitted a Significant Weather report last night for rainfall up to 10:30pm. Currently skies are overcast with a light misty rain falling and winds are calm. More rain is forecast for today and into tomorrow.
9/23/2018 6:50 AM 1.43 M M M M Rain fell for most of the day yesterday, and when it wasn't raining it was drizzling. The total precipitation measured for this rain event over the last two days is 8.21" I believe this is the most rain I have recorded in the 2+ years I have been a CoCoRaHS observer. Currently overcast skies, a light mist is falling, and winds are very light.
9/24/2018 7:25 AM 0.05 M M M M Fog with decent visibility, calm winds. Mist and drizzle all day yesterday plus some rain last night resulted in .05" in the gauge. When I checked the gauge yesterday evening there was only a trace though the meniscus was free of the bottom of the tube, so nearly .01".
9/25/2018 7:15 AM T M M M M It was still misting when I read the gauge yesterday morning and required wipers when I was out running errands, so a trace it is. Currently mostly clear skies with calm winds.
9/26/2018 7:40 AM 0.04 M M M M A light rain is falling. Calm winds.
9/27/2018 7:05 AM 0.16 M M M M Continuation of the precip that I reported yesterday morning, bringing the total for 2 days to .20" Currently it is overcast but with some thinning of cloud cover as the moon could be seen through some of the thin clouds in the darkness. Winds are calm and temps are much cooler.
9/28/2018 7:17 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Very heavy dew this morning as there was dripping coming out of the downspouts. Currently overcast skies and calm winds.

11/5/2017 11/07/2017 7:10 AM 3 0.00 M M Currently overcast and calm.
11/14/2017 11/26/2017 7:00 AM 13 0.00 M M No accumulation in gauge after nearly 2 weeks away.
12/2/2017 12/04/2017 7:22 AM 3 0.00 M M Currently overcast skies and breezy. Looking for more unseasonably warm weather. Ugh. We do need some precip.
12/23/2017 1/05/2018 8:20 AM 14 1.20 M M Most of the precip probably fell around the 12/23-12/25 time frame so there was probably some evaporation that occurred in my gauge between the rain and when I was able to measure it. Currently the skies are clear and there is a very slight breeze.
3/11/2018 3/19/2018 6:55 AM 9 0.09 M M Currently skies are clear and it is windy.
3/24/2018 3/26/2018 8:00 PM 3 0.00 M M Got back in town on 3/26 at 7:30 pm and read the gauge shortly after arrival. It was empty as I suspected it would be. There was a very good chance of rain overnight with measurable precip likely on 3/27 by 7:00 am. I decided to go ahead and report the zero at the time I read the gauge last night. Was this the correct thing to do? Had there been any precip in it at 8:00 PM I would have just waited until the morning and reported the total precip for 4 days instead of 3-1/2 days.
6/23/2018 7/08/2018 7:00 AM 16 0.02 M M After returning from a 2 weeks plus trip, there was .02 inches in the gauge. Currently skies are clear and there is a slight breeze - more of a barely perceptible movement in the air. Glad to be back home, but not happy that the allergies have kicked in again!
8/8/2018 8/14/2018 7:00 AM 7 7.39 M M I was out of town for a week. I know there was intermittent rain while I was gone but never expected to get this much accumulation over the week. I believe MOST of that accumulation fell in the past 24 hours but I really have no objective way to say - I did NOT check the gauge when I got home around midnight last night and there was some significant rain that fell after that and before 7:00am (lesson for next time, I guess). Currently skies are overcast and there is a light rain falling with calm winds.
9/1/2018 9/03/2018 7:53 AM 3 0.00 M M Hot and humid the past few days. Currently overcast skies with calm winds.
