Do not compare rainfall readings to reading obtained from television,
radio, newspapers, or neighbors’ readings. Such readings are not
located in your specific environment and therefore are not an accurate
measurement of the weather readings taking place in your
surroundings. The rain collector is carefully tested at the factory to
conform to the specifications listed in the back of this manual.
The history rainfall calibration factor is applied to the running total, not
individual tips. All of the rainfall figures are calculated from the total
number of tips recorded by the station since it was reset. The total is
multiplied by 0.3 to get a total in mm. This is then converted to inches if
necessary by multiplying by 0.0393700787. The calibration multiplier is
then applied to this, and this is the figure that remembers and
compares each time a new total is read from the station.
