Keeping Track Of Rainfall Amounts

Keeping Track Of Rainfall Amounts

Postby kellytroym » August 8th, 2011, 9:58 pm

I was wondering if anyone out there knew of a good way to keep track of rainfall amounts on a weekly basis? I did some poking around online earlier today, but couldn't find anything that I didn't have to pay for.

I know I could accomplish this by getting a rain gauge; however, I know with my schedule I'd forget to note the amounts after each storm. I realize it's already being done somewhere, why reconstruct the wheel?

Thanks,

If you have something like a local radio station, they'll probably link out to local weather stations that have, amongst other things, various amounts of precip data. Mine's great on the day and month cycle, lousy on the weekly one.

Something like that might do. I chose Springfield, MA as it's kind of western MA, but I'm sure there's one close to you, at least reasonably close.

That link is perfect. We have an airport right next door so I assume the information is coming from there.

Thanks MorpheusPA!!
