Same here Andy:

Davis AWS TBR = 51.8 mm
5" standard rain gauge = 64.2 mm.

Normally the two agree quite well but this rain event has made a mess of
that. Checked TBR and found nothing wrong.

Both TBR and gauge are in the same location (though about 1 metre apart)
and the top rim about 30 cm above the grass for both.
