11/26/2018 7:00 AM 0.42 3.7 0.50 3.3 0.37 Light rain began falling at 9:42 am, transitioning to sleet about 9:53 am, and finally to snow at 10:05 am CST. At 12 pm CST, 0.9 inches of new snow had accumulated on the snowboard and by 3 pm, there was 3.4 inches of storm-total snowfall. At 6 pm with only a few flurries still falling, the measured snow depth on the snowboard was 3.7 inches. Sustained wind speeds of 7 to 20 mph were present throughout the event with wind gusts up to 33 mph, according to a nearby electronic weather station. Due to the strong winds and warm ground temperatures at the start of this blizzard, snow core measurements from both the snowboard and the ground were taken. The liquid equivalent from the snowboard core is 0.50 inches, which is probably the best measure of the fallen liquid equivalent precipitation. The ground core measurement was taken from a location with a snow depth of 3.2" and had 0.37 inches of liquid equivalent water content.
11/27/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.0 0.23 Yesterday was warm enough that some melting and settling of the snowpack occurred. Range of snow depth on the ground was 1.5 to 2.3 inches. Depth of the snowpack core was 2 inches. Equivalent water content of the snowpack was 0.23 inches.
11/28/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.0 0.18 Range of snowpack depth is 0 to 2 inches. Average snowpack depth is 1.2 inches. Snowpack core was taken in an area where the snow was 1.2 inches deep and yielded a liquid equivalent value of 0.18 inches.

1/12/2019 7:00 AM 0.98 3.1 0.60 3.7 0.51 All-day rain and snow event occurred yesterday, overnight, and into today. Event started off as rain at about 6:55 am CST yesterday morning. Pulled inner tube out of the rain gauge at 4:30 pm yesterday; 0.30 inches of rain had accumulated between 7 am and 4:30 pm. Rain mixed with wet snow started falling at about 4:45 pm and finally changed over to all snow prior to 6:00 pm. Snowed all night. 2.8 inches of snow had accumulated on the snowboard as of 3:25 am CST this morning. As of 7 am this morning, it was still lightly snowing. Air temperatures all night were at or above freezing, so there was significant melting and compaction of the newly fallen snow.

At 12:20 pm, there was 2.9" of snow on the snowboard. Snow tapered off in the afternoon and was done by about 5:30 pm. Winds were 5-7 mph gusting up to 16 mph at times during the event and became light overnight, so there was not much drifting or blowing snow. The storm total snow depth of 3.1" was taken at 5:00 pm CST. This morning, settling had reduced the snow depth on the snowboard to 2.6". Snow depths across the ground and the snowboard were very consistent, ranging from 2.6" to 2.8" on the snowboard and 2.9" to 3.4" on the ground.

No precipitation was falling during the observation period. Snow pack melted more yesterday, but there is still some snow present. The average snow pack depth is 0.69" with a range between zero and 2.7 inches. The snow core was taken from an area where the snow pack was between 0.5 and 1.0 inches deep.

Six measurements of snowfall depth off of the snowboard gave a range of 1.8 to 2.2 inches, with the average being 2.0". The ground depth, which is probably closer to truth given the gusty overnight winds, ranged from 2.2 to 3.2 inches, with the average being 2.5 inches.

3/4/2019 7:00 AM T 0.2 M 1.5 0.08 Yesterday, the remnants of the winter system wrapped itself up between 9 and 10 am CST. Gusty winds created some drifting and blowing snow. The new snow accumulation in this report was taken at 11 am CST and may have been contaminated by drifting snow. The liquid equivalent measurement of snow inside the Cocorahs gauge was taken at 3:45 pm. Despite the drifting snow, the snow depth across the yard was remarkably consistent with snow depth ranging from 0.9" to 1.7".

12/23/2018 12/31/2018 7:05 AM 9 1.49 0.0 M Given the time of the year, left the outer tube (only) out for precipitation measurement while we were away. There was 1.49 inches, liquid equivalent, of water/ice inside the outer tube this morning. No snow on the ground, but it was raining during the observation time. Data from a nearby tipping-bucket rain gauge shows that it rained several times during the accumulation period. On Dec. 24th 0.05" accumulated, on Dec. 26 1.52", on Dec. 27 0.07", and finally between midnight and 7:05 am this morning 0.02" of light rain fell. This gives a total of 1.66" of precipitation during the accumulation period. Difference between the cocorahs and the tipping bucket rain gauges is probably due to evaporation on the days were it wasn't precipitating.
