1 Utah Rain Training Rain Because every drop counts!
2 What Is CoCoRaHS? CoCoRaHS is a grassroots, non-profit, community-based, high-density h it precipitation it ti network made up of volunteers of all backgrounds and ages who take daily measurements of just precipitation right in their own backyards!
3 Once trained, our volunteers collect data using low-cost measurement tools 4-inch diameter high capacity rain gauges
4 You will need: 1- A CoCoRaHS C 4-inch rain gauge installed in a good location, which can bought from: WeatherYourWay.com, or AmbientWeather.com. 2- A login ID and password to enter dt data. While on the CoCoRaHS website, click on the Join CoCoRaHS" and complete the on-line application form. Once you sign up, you will receive a login and password.
5 3- Internet or telephone capabilities. The ability to gather accurate data and transmit it in a timely fashion is very important.
6 What Do I Do With My Rain Gauge? 1. Placing Your Rain Gauge 2. Taking Measurements From Your Rain Gauge 3. Recording Your Measurements
7 1. Placing Your Rain Gauge Avoid placing it under trees or any structure. Although convenient, the deck is still too close to the house.
8 Also avoid placing your gauge near: Sprinklers (both big and small) Steep slopes (a bit exaggerated) Animals (dogs, birds, etc)
9 And finally avoid anything that would artificially increase or decrease your gauge g catch. Wind Such as a solid fence This can cause up drafting during strong winds This can cause up drafting during strong winds, which may reduce your gauge catch.
10 Ideal placement of your gauge Photo by M. Suedukum Hail Pad
11 Distance From Obstacles In open areas, strive to be twice as far from obstacles as they are high. In developed areas, strive to be as far from obstacles as they are high.
12 Distance Between Trees Ideally, place your gauge equidistant from the nearest trees.
13 Height Above the Ground In open areas place the gauge g top approx. 2 feet off the ground. This is to improve gauge g catch by reducing wind speed. In developed areas place the gauge g top approx. 5 feet off the ground. This is to improve gauge catch by reducing the impact of nearby obstacles. 2 feet 5 feet
14 LEVEL and BEVEL Make sure your gauge is level. Bevel the top of the post to reduce Bevel the top of the post to reduce rain splashing into the gauge.
15 2. Taking Measurements From Your Rain Gauge When Should I Read My Rain Gauge? - 7:00AM is preferred. - Between 5:00AM and 9:00AM is OK. - Other times are accepted, but they will not appear on CoCoRaHS Maps. Photo by Henry Reges
16 Reading Your Rain Gauge Reading the rain gauge is easy, but accuracy & consistency are important. Here are the most common situations you may encounter when reading your gauge.
17 Your most common observation will be zero, (0.00), nada, nothing, zilch! It is important to know that it did NOT rain. Please report zeros!
18 Trace T When only a drop or two wet the When only a drop or two wet the gauge, record a T for Trace.
19 Between T and one tenth of an inch That s 0.04 or four hundredths.
20 The surface of the water in the gauge looks curved. How do I know where to read? As water fills up the measuring tube, a curved surface is formed called a meniscus. This meniscus is formed by the surface tension of a liquid in contact with the sides of the tube. Always read the bottom of the meniscus when making your daily rain measurements.
21 A nice soaking rain 0.50 This is one half inch. It s... NOT 5.0, nor 0.05, but 0.50 (kind of like 50 cents out of a dollar).
22 A good rain 1.00 The inner tube holds 1.00 inch.
23 DECIMALS Getting the decimal point correct is ESSENTIAL There is a large water difference between 0.40 inches and 4.00 inches. y Reges Photo by Henry
24 Water! Water! Everywhere! When more than an inch of rain falls the precipitation will When more than an inch of rain falls the precipitation will overflow into the outer cylinder. The whole gauge has a capacity to hold 11 inches.
25 To measure greater than one inch... Pour out the first inch from the inner tube and write it down. Now pour the remaining water into the funnel & measure using the inner tube.
26 Then add up all of your measurements, for instance: Continue until all of the water has been measured. Make sure you keep track of your amounts along the way. 100i 1.00 inch i inches inches inches = 3.77 inches Total = 3.77
27 How do I measure Freezing Rain? - Freezing rain is rain that falls in liquid form but freezes on contact twith a surface. - Do NOT report freezing rain as "Snow". Melt and measure the moisture that has accumulated inside your gauge and report that as your Daily Precipitation Amount.
28 3. Recording Your Measurements: Login to the CoCoRaHS Web site: First, click to Login and enter your username and password.
29 Recording your Daily Precipitation After you login, the screen will automatically take you to the Daily Precipitation Report.
30 Enter Your Report Record your measurement in hundredths (0.00). Here you will enter the total precipitation measured in your gauge.
31 Recording Comments Feel free to enter comments about the day s weather under Observation Notes
32 Submit your Report Click Submit, and your data is recorded on our site.

34 Your Report on our Daily Map The amount of precipitation you entered shows up at your location on the map. This data allows CoCoRaHS to supplement existing networks and provide many useful results to scientists, resource managers, decision makers and other end users on a timely basis.
