Josh we add light snow but it was mixed with rain. It was like that for about 3 hours yesterday. I have received close to 1.50 inches according the my 4" rain gauge. My Davis is under reading a bit. It is about .20 below the 4" manual gauge. It has been light rain for the most part and not a lot of wind.

I just got the gauge about a month ago and this is the first significant rain I have had to compare the two. I know there is a post here on this forum about calibrating it. I will take a gander at it here in the next few days.

Mid 30's here for the low. It is going to be gloomy here for the next few days. Have not had much rain this year. This has helped a bit.

From KARE 11 in MPLS


Bismarck, N.D. -- Snow has fallen in Dickinson in June, the first time in nearly 60 years the city has seen snow past May.

National Weather Service meteorologist Janine Vining in Bismarck says there were unofficial reports of a couple of inches of snow in Dickinson on Saturday.

Vining says snow in North Dakota in June is uncommon, though it's not unheard of. She says other parts of the state have seen June snow within the past 10 years.

Williston and Bismarck had received only rain as of mid-Saturday, but Vining said snow was possible in those cities later in the day.
