How a rain gauge works?
A rain gauge is a piece of apparatus left outdoors, which collects water during rain. The user reads the amount of water off a scale. You can use a vertical-sided container, and make your own measurements of the water depth. For meteorological purposes, a commercially manufactured instrument is used. For precision, especially when falls are light, the gauge has a funnel, so that the water from a larger area is gathered into a narrower area. This means that the scale has to be enlarged, giving better readings. To see pictures and obtain more detailed information, visit: http://ccc.atmos.colostate.edu/~hail/howto/help/rain.htm
