Liquid Precipitation Column
« on: August 30, 2024, 09:42:20 AM »
So attached is a pic of my liquid precipitation column on my home page pennlake.us

I have been meaning to ask this question for years.

in the pic (all in inches)  -- Today  0.25   then Storm Rain 1.48  Yesterday 0.57 then Last 7 days 1.33

Where does the Storm Rain Total come from - from storms throughout the whole month of August?

Hi,
From another forum:
Quote
Rain Storm displays the rain total of the last rain event. It takes two tips of the rain
bucket to begin a storm event and 24 hours without rain to end a storm event.
Press RAINDAY to toggle between the daily rain total and the Rain Storm total. Rain
accumulation may be displayed as either millimeters (mm) or inches (in).

Enjoy,
Paul

Thanks PaulMy!! I must have searched the wrong topic.

And that does add up when I checked my records.

Another one of life mysteries off the list!

Again Thanks.
