Rain Gauge In Garden (David)
Yep, a straight sided cup would work fine also. You could even use a ruler to measure the amount of rain in the cup if you needed a real accurate measurement. I was aware of using a cup like you mention and even thought about it. The fact is, it's not only my legs that are bad, my eyes aren't much better either. I call it old age.......LOL The rain gauge I bought is large at 13" high and it also magnifies when it has water in it with nice big numbers. Hopefully this should serve me well in the garden. Rich Well, I guess I'll LOL right along with you, Rich, as age has taken it's toll on my eyes as well. I find it amazing the conversations on the top topic of "rain gauges" . There are many weather station that would more then welcome any daily/weekly measurement you obtain from your home. That's how "they" learn what's changing out there when it comes to the weather. And I'm sure they wouldn't take any measurements gathered by a cup. Donna in WA zoning is area 8-9 |
