    • Kevin, aren’t our gauges supposed to be 4 ft off the ground and 20 ft from the nearest tree or building?

    • Hi Cathie,
      The picture provides a poor angle for judging the elevation of the rain gauge. Actually the top of the gauge should be 4 feet, not the bottom. And mine is. As to being at least 20 feet from the nearest tree or building – it is more than 20 feet from the nearest building but small trees are closer than 20 feet to the gauge. In apartment living that I am under now I can only do so much, I try to make the best of the locations for the gauge that I have available to me. Last year when I first set my gauge up in April 2017 I had it on the apartment grounds. I found that during the warmer months the apartment maintenance team was running a sprinkler in the middle of the night and fouling up my rain gauge catch. The gauge was also closer to the apartment high rise buildings (4 stories) And I had bigger trees near the gauge that were taller than the ones at its current location. The rain gauge is actually better “sited” where it is than where I have my Davis VP2 weather station installed. I have much more major issues with that setup. If you want to hear about them, just let me know and I will write about it in a few days. I also have plenty of pictures to document my unique siting problems. Thanks, Kevin
