10/15/2018 7:10 AM 0.98 M M M M A loud hail storm woke me up about 1:55am this morning. I did NOT get up to investigate, but it sounded pretty intense, including frequent thunder. Currently skies are overcast with wind and rain is falling. Much cooler today than it has been.
10/16/2018 7:10 AM 1.11 M M M M Almost continuous light rain all day yesterday and through the night last night with some occasional periods of heavier rains. Ground has been saturated for several days so the net effect is runoff and erosion. Currently skies are overcast, rain is falling, and winds are calm (and I'm beginning to develop webbed toes - hah!)

10/20/2018 7:00 AM 1.86 M M M M Clear skies this morning with calm winds. A little too light out to see any of the Orionid Meteors this morning. Total precipitation measured since the beginning of this rain event, 10/7 to 10/20 or about 2 weeks (I was out of town for 7 days and had to log a multi-day report on 10/14 so I don't really know when the first rain fell during that perod) at my location is 9.48".
10/21/2018 6:56 AM T M M M M We had a very brief rainfall around 8:30 yesterday morning, then clearing skies and sunshine the rest of the day. Finally some cheer! Currently clear with calm winds.

10/25/2018 7:00 AM 2.12 M M M M Rain fell most of the day yesterday and into the evening. There was quite widespread street flooding, though not deep flooding in my area but substantial runoff from already saturated soils. 11.60 inches so far for the month at my location - WOW! Currently skies are overcast with a just the hint of a breeze and a very light drizzle falling.
10/26/2018 7:15 AM T M M M M It continued to drizzle after I checked my gauge yesterday morning to reporting a Trace today. The day cleared up and was mostly clear for the rest of the day after about noon. Currently clear skies and calm winds.

11/8/2018 7:03 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M I expected some precip this morning but the gauge was dry - not even a trace, though yesterday morning (11/7) when I emptied the gauge there was a very light mist in the air - not really a drizzle - hence no Trace. Currently skies are overcast and there is a light wind blowing with an expectation for rain later today and this evening.

11/13/2018 7:07 AM 0.03 M M M M The .03 observed this morning was most likely continuation from the rain that was falling yesterday morning when I read the gauge at 5:10am but since I had to leave the house yesterday at 5:30am this is what we get. Currently it is partly cloudy, windy, and cold. It was supposed to have frozen last night but I don't see ice and the .03 this morning was liquid, so I don't think we got as low as predicted.
11/14/2018 7:15 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M Clear skies, calm winds, cold: We got a hard freeze last night,. It was the first one of the year with a low of around 21F reported from several personal weather stations inside a mile radius of my location.

12/19/2018 7:15 AM T M M M M I wasn't sure if the moisture was precipitation or a heavy dew, but the gauge did have a very little bit of precip in the bottom, so T it is. Currently skies are overcast, winds are calm, and there is a very light misty-drizzle falling - enough to mess up my glasses when I went out.

1/13/2019 7:33 AM T M M M M Trace of precip in the gauge last night when I checked it and still the same amount this morning at my official observation time. I was a little surprised, but a check today of other area gauges shows some observations of precip recorded, mostly in the .01-.03 range so I am not an outlier. Currently overcast skies and a slight breeze. Lots of songbirds in the yard eating the yaupon and possomhaw berries.

1/19/2019 5:07 AM 0.19 T M M M It's snowing!! That is a big deal down here. The ground is warm enough that there is no accumulation except on my gauge funnel and a little elevated ornamental wood garden bridge so there is no way to tell what the snow depth might be, though it appears to be less than 1/4" or so. Rain started last night some time, became "wintry mix" and this morning is snow. Winds are strong and skies are overcast.
1/20/2019 7:38 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M The snow reported yesterday morning, and that was still falling at the time of my report, ended shortly after I took my observation so no additional accumulation was measured. Currently skies are clear and winds are calm but it is colder this morning (about 25F).

2/1/2019 7:30 AM T M M M M Overcast skies with a light drizzle falling. Not enough to have drained any moisture into the measuring tube so it must have just started in the past hour or so. Calm winds and warmer temps than yesterday.
2/2/2019 7:00 AM T M M M M Light misty rain on and off all day yesterday. Not enough to register in the bottom of the gauge though. Currently overcast skies and calm winds.
2/3/2019 7:23 AM T M M M M At first wasn't sure if I was seeing a Trace of precip or a heavy dew.

Lots of cardinals (both male and female) in the back yard feasting on berries (Yaupon, Possum Haw, and Holly).

2/28/2019 7:40 AM 0.03 M M M M I had to let the block of ice in my gauge melt. Luckily there was only .03" so no damage to the inner cylinder. This makes having a second gauge worthwhile! Currently skies are overcast and there is freezing drizzle falling with calm winds.
3/1/2019 7:01 AM T M M M M Trace today since it was still a drizzle yesterday when I checked the gauge, even though there is no moisture in the gauge this morning. Currently overcast skies, calm winds, and cold.

Currently overcast skies with a slight breeze and no precip falling. I removed the inner cylinder on my gauge as we are predicted to have low temps tomorrow morning in the low 20'sF and perhaps a chance of more light rain or drizzle into today.

3/30/2019 7:02 AM T M M M M Trace of rain since it is drizzling while I take my reading. I think it must have just started as the ground is not yet wet and only the funnel on the gauge is wet so far. Currently overcast skies, drizzle, and calm winds.
3/31/2019 7:50 AM 0.01 M M M M Lots of yellow pollen on flat surfaces and on the funnel of my gauge. Even the .01 of water in the gauge was tinted yellow.

5/1/2019 6:55 AM 1.20 M M M M We had a huge storm come through about 6:15pm last night that lasted for about 30-45 minutes. We were under a tornado warning and there was a touch-down just north of us about 10 miles away with the radar rotations passing from SSW to NNE just to the west of us by a couple of miles. I did fill out a Significant Weather Report last night about 7:20pm. Heaviest rain fell from 6:30pm to 7:00pm and I would estimate that all of the reported precipitation fell between 6:15 and 7:15pm. Currently skies are overcast with a light breeze and chances for more rain today and tomorrow. We are under a Flash Flood Watch until tomorrow (Thursday) evening. Note: I used the weigh method to calculate the observed precipitation: (699g - 458g) / 201g/in = 1.1990 rounded to 1.20.
5/2/2019 7:05 AM 1.77 M M M M Big rain storm last night. I did not take notes on when the rain started nor when it was the heaviest, but fully 1.76" of the measured precip fell from about 8:30pm and into the night. Total measured by weight (813g - 458g) / 201 g/in = 1.766169). It stopped sometime after I went to bed at midnight. There was normal street flooding here, but according to news reports areas close to me had much more severe flooding as it appeared the main body of the storm was to the west and north of me. Currently skies are overcast and there is a light breeze blowing. I switched out my gauges this morning.
5/3/2019 7:09 AM 0.04 M M M M A brief but intense storm yesterday morning around 9:00am left a small amount of rain at my location. Currently skies are mostly cloudy and winds are calm. Widely scattered thunderstorms are predicted today.

There was localized damage and power lines down south east of my house but no noticeable damage here other than leaves and small twigs from trees and shrubs. I probably did NOT catch all the precipitation that fell as a lot of it was going sideways due to the strong winds. Also, I did NOT note storm timings. Currently skies are mostly clear and winds are light.

6/16/2019 7:00 AM 1.95 M M M M Thunderstorms early this morning with heavy rain. Not sure what time the storms started as I didn't have the presence of mind to check the clock when they woke me up. Also sounded like there could have been some hail or just really large raindrops at the outset. Currently we are in a lull for the storm but skies are overcast and wind is calm with an outlook for more rain today. Measurement today using the weight method (dry outside of large cylinder, gross wgt 939g minus tare wgt 548g divided by 201 = 1.94527363 inches)

10/7/2018 10/14/2018 6:53 AM 8 4.51 M M After returning early this morning from a trip, I swapped out my gauges at 6:53am and went back to bed (covered the full gauge with plastic wrap to mitigate evaporation). Over the week we were gone we heard reports from friends of flooding in the area. I suspect there was more rain that fell than I measured due to splashing out during intense rainfall, but this is what was in the gauge this morning. Currently overcast skies with some light rain since 7 and calm winds.
11/20/2018 11/26/2018 7:00 AM 7 0.00 M M No precipitation recorded at my location for the week I was out of town. Currently clear skies and a light breeze.
12/1/2018 12/03/2018 7:00 AM 3 0.00 M M Expected copious amounts of rain...got nothing. Currently mostly cloudy skies, breezy, and colder. Happy Birthday, Mom!
12/23/2018 1/06/2019 6:40 AM 15 3.45 M M Away from home for two weeks, this is the accumulation in my gauge. I removed the inner measuring tube before leaving in the event there was precipitation and then a cold freezing spell to protect the tube, but left the funnel in place, so if there was an extremely heavy rain or a snow event I am probably under-reporting, however with the funnel in place there is more protection against evaporation. There was condensation on the under-side (inside) of the funnel so there may have been some evaporation loss as well. Currently skies are clear and winds are calm. Temps are mild - a very comfortable morning after having been in the cold Colorado Mountains for most of the past two weeks.
2/21/2019 2/25/2019 7:00 AM 5 0.13 M M Checked the gauge yesterday afternoon around 4:00pm and had .13 then. I don't know when the rain fell but it was not overnight last night! Currently partly cloudy with calm winds.
3/12/2019 3/16/2019 6:00 AM 5 1.20 M M Used “by weight” method: (700g-458g)/201=1.203”. Currently clear skies and calm winds.
3/17/2019 3/18/2019 7:00 AM 2 0.00 M M Currently clear skies with calm winds.
4/11/2019 4/24/2019 7:30 AM 14 6.02 M M THIS IS AN ESTIMATE. I was sent a closeup picture of my gauge on 4/24 at 7:33 am (both of us were out of town up until Tuesday night 4/23). The gauge was emptied immediately without an accurate measurement being made. When I returned to town on 4/27 I recreated the volume of water in the gauge using the picture and used the weight method to arrive at 6.02 inches of accumulated rainfall (1668g - 458g)/201g/in=6.019900in. I did a "Station Precipitation Summary Report" on 3 station near me and my numbers are consistent with their reported observations over the same days (TX-DN-1, TX-DN-54, TX-DN-59). I can send the picture of the gauge if you need it.
5/25/2019 5/28/2019 7:00 AM 4 0.00 M M Currently it is mostly cloudy with light wind.
8/15/2019 8/22/2019 7:00 AM 8 0.00 M M Out of town for 8 days and the gauge is dry. Currently clear skies and calm winds.
8/31/2019 9/02/2019 7:00 AM 3 0.27 M M All measured precip fell on Friday, 8/30 between about 2:00pm and 5:00pm, and would have been reported on Saturday morning's entry except that I was out of town for those two days, having left at 6:00pm Friday (and checked my gauge after the rain stopped on Friday). Currently skies are clear and winds calm.
