Not insulting them. Not insulting them--they do great work-- butI can think of at least four or five times last season when they predicted an inch or so and we got several inches.

Blue_Ridge_Escarpment Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Sitting at 99.60 with steady rain falling. Need .40 to hit the 100 inch mark for the year. What a weather year including two ice storms and 16 inches of snow already. Oh and today is the first day of winter. I love WNC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirNelson39 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 That really is an awesome rain gauge. How's the accuracy?From everything I’ve read it’s pretty accurate, I need to get a weather station at some point to really compare accuracy. It’s pretty cool though!

Moonhowl Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Dropped from 44 F to 39 F here in the valley; ~2.3" of rain IMBY for the storm event so far. It would be nice to see a few flakes mixing in; we will see... Disclaimer: not sure I would trust my rain gauge as much as the World's Coolest Rain Gauge.
