WIth a rain gauge that measures in inches.
believe a std gauge has s catchment neck of 112,82 mm diameter, thus every 1,,mm that falls on that spot, will measure 1cc (or 1ml) in a seperate measuring flask. no maths needed! Some manufactures adapt the graduations on an integral flask to allow for a different neck size
The volume of rain in an area over a period of time
Precipitation (rain, hail, sleet & snow) is caught in a rain gauge & runs into a glass container. The contents are then tipped into a standard gauge & measured in millimetres (mm). Snow & hail must be melted first before being measured.
It is called a rain gauge because it measures rainfall.
A rain gauge typically consists of a cylindrical measuring tube, a funnel to guide the rain into the tube, and a measuring scale to read the amount of rainfall collected. Some rain gauges may also have a base for stability.
