it really depends how much it rains.....if it's just light rain, then it doesn't really register until enough accumulates.....then you might get a reading of 0.3mm

Yes, it's surprising how much light or moderate rain it takes for a 0.3mm tip.

Its okay, 1.5mm now recorded and that puts my mind at ease knowing the rain gauge is working
