Longest Dry Run curiosity
Posted: Thu 26 Jul 2018 4:58 pm
My Cumulus "Longest Dry Period" ended at 31 days, when we had 0.6mm on the 21st July. However whilst listening to a BBC weather man on Radio 4 talk about some areas experiencing 45+ days continuious days of no rain, he said that rain less than 1mm does not officially count! I was very suprised. Did i hear that right ? I would be on 46 days if the brief shower was excluded....
This seems to suggest,if true, that the Cumulus Software defintion of "Dry Run" or the default "RainDayThreshold" might not be quite right perhaps.
This is not a complaint and I don't have an issue; it works as I expect and want. Perhaps you are aware or not, either way, I just thought I would throw this up here out of curiosity.
Best Wishes.
