Hello all - for the past week or so my rain gauge has stopped working. I checked everything out and finally decided the the reed switch for the tipping bucket wasn't working properly, so I ordered a new reed switch, which I now have, but I'm waiting to fit.
In the mean time I've reverted to using my old manual rain gauge and taken daily readings so that I have a complete record of the rainfall. Yesterday (21st Jan) I measured 32mm via the manual method, then this morning consider my amazement when I discovered the 32mm was showing on my Vantage Pro consol. It had been recorded for the wrong day i.e. a day later (22 Jan), but the complete reading was there. It would seem that my old reed switch is indeed working, does anyone have any idea what's going on here - it's certainly head scratching time for me!!
Thanks for any help
