Perhaps this concept of a trace amount being less than 1 mm is different than in the U.S.A. because our rain gauges are calibrated to the nearest 0.01″ inch. Any amount less than half of 0.01″ (0.005″) is considered to be a trace here in the U.S. So we have two different definitions of trace amounts in the world if this is true. Let’s see if we…[Read more]

Well the ground hog didn’t see his shadow so we are supposedly in for an early spring. Punxsatawney Phil has had about a 40% accuracy rate the past 10 years so I am not too worried about our snow chances for the […]

Thanks Harry. Good to see your basic data for January. With 14 days of rain yielding only 2.10″ , you must have mostly light daily amounts. Does your weather station record trace amounts? Usually they don’t, and you have to closely observe the conditions to notice and record trace amounts. Any amount, even a few drops, counts as a trace. Can you…[Read more]

I have caught up on my…[Read more]

I wasn’t on his show, but I think we were Facebook friends. WT has been a little quiet on the Facebook chat since we’ve been chatting with a place that can help us get more views on our posts, and we…[Read more]

Hi Russ! Thanks for your reply. Looking for your reports from Massapequa. I am in touch with Barometer Bob on FACEBOOK, though I had to start a new account there and had to do a new friend request. I called into his show when it was alive on occasion. Fun show, I indeed miss it. Do you have a weather station? I hope so. I have a Davis Vantage Pro…[Read more]

@southcoastwx Gary – looking for posts from you. Where are you located? Do you have a weather station? I post most every day or other day from my location in central Maryland. I imagine with your name that you are located somewhere on or near the Gulf Coast of the U.S. Hope to see your reports soon! Thanks for joining weather together!
