Rain Gauge

What I learned...
                         - that Rain Gauge is an instrument used measure precipitation in a certain amount of time. It also has two types; The MANUAL RAIN GAUGE that uses a Special kind of Meter Stick and the DIGITAL RAIN GAUGE that uses technology; displays the amount of precipitate in a screen connected to it.

What I did...
                         - I recorded the Daily Weather, Humidity, Sunrise and Sunset from The Website of PAGASA. I also recorded the daily Rain Gauge Collection. 

I can apply my learning to...
                          -measure the the precipitation using the rain gauge. And to know what kind of rain fall it is.

I need to learn more about...
                           -Rain gauge. And also the rainfalls; to know the state easily.



TRIVIA:



  • Rain Gauges are use to measure the depth of precipitation that occurs over a unit area.
  • MANUAL rain gauge is usually measured by millimeters while DIGITAL rain gauge is measured by inches.
  • The Rain Gauge collection is inaccurate when winds are too strong.
