Pretty Day here in western Virginia.  Most likely the last time we will have warm enough weather to be able to disassemble the rain gauge.  My paint job on my rain gauge mod did not fair well due to the sun's ultraviolet rays over the summer.  So I took it down this morning, sanded and cleaned up the outside surface of the funnel real good.  I am currently waiting for the adhesive on it to dry, so that I can reapply some plastic compatible paint to it.  Hopefully the paint will dry enough that I can get it back on the stand before dark comes this evening.

I also took the time to clean off the Solar panels, evict spiders and their egg sacs.  The battery on the inside temp/baro/hygro was also showing low, so replaced that.

So if you have not got out there and cleaned up/prepped your stations for winter, you better hurry old man winter is right around the corner.
