Highest Rain Rates?
Just curious as to what's the highest rain rates people here have recorded?
57.2mm/hr is the highest I've seen in the roughly 3 weeks I've had my VP2 - but I'm looking forward to some nice summer t/storms...  -- Paul Hyett, Cheltenham |

I witnessed a 212mm/hr reading once in a thunderstorm, but it only lasted a second or two. I presume accuracy is completely unreliable when water is probably entering the gauge faster than it can leave. |
