Washoe County Rain Gauge Network: Continued Operation Plan and Historical Data Analysis Western Regional Climate Center (WRCC) personnel: Dan McEvoy, Greg McCurdy, and Albert Wolff Tasks: Network monitoring and maintenance (McCurdy and Wolff) WRCC to assist and eventually take over collection and maintenance of the Network Network historical data analysis Thorough QA/QC of historical data Compare Network data to PRISM and other gridded data Detailed record keeping of collection/empty dates allows for comparison to daily data products 9-21-16: WRWC Agenda Item 10

Network Historical Data Analysis Small number of stations currently used to generate PRISM Network data can be used to improve: Groundwater recharge estimates Flood frequency analysis and curves PRISM estimates and general spatial patterns of precipitation in Washoe County Estimates of the hydrologic cycle and water balance Continued monitoring will allow for future precipitation trend analysis and generation of better climatology for Washoe County Valuable for validation of downscaled global climate models used in climate change analysis
