Precipitation refers to any form of water–liquid or solid–that falls from the atmosphere and reaches the ground. Rain, snow, sleet, freezing rain, graupel, hail, and drizzle are all various forms of precipitation, depending on droplet size and temperature conditions. Fog and dew are not considered precipitation because they are condensation processes rather than falling water. […]
Real-Time Precipitation Measurements The YSI H-3401 Tipping Bucket Rain Gauges are compatible with NexSens X-Series data loggers using the SDI-12 sensor interface and communication protocol. A pre-defined script on NexSens X-Series data loggers is able to detect, log, and transmit all precipitation parameters on the rain gauge. Parameter data is transmitted, in real-time, at a […]
Although flooding is more likely in some regions than in others, it’s possible almost anywhere. As weather patterns change and become more unpredictable and more extreme weather events occur, flooding will become more common. And while it may seem intuitive that bad weather might cause flooding, general information isn’t enough to save lives and protect […]
