November 2007 in Lundie, Angus, in the Sidlaws, 10 miles NW of Dundee,
elev. 185 m


Slightly warmer and drier than average. Dry, quiet first half; warm
start; cooler, wetter, less settled second half. The maximum on the 2nd
was the equal highest for November.

Average maxima = 9.2 (+0.2)
Average minima = 3.8 (+0.3)
Mean = 6.5 (+0.2)
Highest maximum = 16.7 (2nd)
Lowest maximum = 5.3 (25th)
Lowest minimum = -2.0 (24th)
Total rainfall = 59.6 mm (88%)
Most in a day = 14.4 mm (21st)

Autumn overall was the driest in my records, with just 94.2 mm of rain
(46% of average).

All readings (except grass minimum) from a new shiny (except I've
already lost that little plastic grid inside the rain gauge) Davis
Vantage Pro 2.

Mine blew away on about the third day.

It is only a small thing, but it's annoying, because bits of stuff do
occasionally end up in the gauge.

I could cover it with something, I suppose, but I'm not sure what would
be best.

Perhaps I should ask Davis for my money back.

My Oregon Scientific gauge has a metal tea-strainer type thing in it (I
suppose I ought to try swapping it over, as the OS one no longer seems
to be transmitting). You could perhaps try an actual tea-strainer with
the handle cut off?

Hi, you were lucky at least you had the filter mine arrived without one.
May I ask a question I have changed mine to metric but the readings are
virtually non existant when it is raining, Tipping the bucket manually gives
a reading OK but dribbling water in at a very slow rate produces incorrect
readings. On the old Monitor you did a calibration cahnge but I assume on
the Vantage Pro this is automatic.

Any ideas?
