On going water rescue (s) going on at Newfound Lake. Towns of Bristol and Alexandria.  Thunderstorm that barely missed me hit the lake.  I had frequent wind gusts over a 10 minute period in the mid 30's so it might have caught some off guard.  Grafton County was not in the Severe Thunderstorm Watch and storm was not warned.

Jesus H how is that real lol. Do you have a different rain rate sensor or is that standard?

1.31” through the tipper. Just checked the stratus and miraculously measured 1.31” there too. So the half inch in 3-4 mins was real.

Probably some erroneous tips being recorded. 

Matched the stratus exactly. If anything, I usually miss a few tips in heavy rates with over 1”, but I’ve been meticulously calibrating that tipper. Maybe I missed a few due to splashout, but gained a few because of the wind and it somehow balanced out? No clue. Close enough though.

I will say, I’ve never seen it rain as hard as it did in those few minutes. Lots of minor tree damage around and a few large branches between here and down toward Winnisquam high school.
