SouthCoastMA Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I may buy a stratus gauge too. I'd like to see how far off my mounted ambient rain gauge is, if at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 So looking at surrounding stations I may be way low on my rain estimate for the day. closest one to me has 2.91 for the day. I may have missed way more while the power was out than .25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in real time, I had to manually turn the little screws/bolts a turn or so. Trial and error like you said, but get a stratus so you can compare rain events. I would check with dendrite first before you do anything..lol. Basically below: Each counterclockwise movement of the stops by one flat of the hexagon raises the stop and hence increases the rainfall recorded by the gauge by approximately 1% (per flat). So one complete revolution of the stop would cause roughly a 6% increase in recorded rainfall. (Raising the stop – ie a movement in the +ve counterclockwise direction – decreases the weight of rain needed to cause a tip of the buckets and hence a given rainfall amount generates more bucket tips and thus a higher rainfall reading); Each of the two stops must be adjusted by an equal amount (and obviously in the same direction); 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn’t rained this much since we moved here from lovely Brockton. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
