Default rainfall recording - davis

Yesterday we had a colossal rain storm.

My Davis recorded 0.2mm only.

I think the rain must have been so heavy that the tipping bucket
stayed down for the duration of the storm. When the rain eased off
normal operation resumed.

Any body had this happen before?

I would guess that there was between one and two inches in old units
over a period of 20 minutes.
