Ginx snewx Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Yeah, that's me. Like I said earlier, it was raining decently. It was localized, but it was raining decently. Kevin asked where all the rain was and I told him what I had. Surprised they put you in with no town name, its awesome you joined.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalloweenGale Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Was there a really strong nor-easter on this same day in 1990? It was centered over New Brunswick. 972 mb. Complete with occlusion over Nova Scotia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rain gauges are generally crap despite the price tag. Just ask Eek about LCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dendrite Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Over 1" of rain at home now. Add in a ~15:1 deformation fluff factor and we'd be talking 12-18" in mid-winter while Ray melts down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what the equipment is for the AWOSs, but they leave a lot to be desired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We believe in making manual measurements with low cost tools. We believe that measurements from many other sources are not as accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take an 8" AWPAG over the 4" stratus for the larger funnel opening diameter and wind shield. The 4 incher isn't immune to wind turbulence. Is that D'Aleo or JoeD from BOX?
