From 7:30 am to 10 am - 5" From 10 am to 4:30 - 5" 4:30 to 8:30 - 4.5" 8:30 to 9 am - 2.2"
Normal rain report is 24 hours 9 am to 9am. I do it that way so the annual rain fall for the year can be totaled up accurately.
Yesterday the gauge was full when I got up at 7:30 so the above report is actually 26 hours but that doesn't matter. I need to know how much rain for yesterday morning up to 7:30 am for my system to be accurate. I guessed at 6 inches for yesterday.
Also there was a strong wind and my gauge was protected by the office some so take the total below with a grain of salt.
