A handy tool...

Because, what my rain gauge says I got - often disagrees with what the weather man said I'd get.

Ha!, Being weatherman is the only job you can be wrong at and still have a job next day :)

@dutchothotmailcom LOL! So very true.

I had a rain gauge once and it never agreed with the weather man

[Corinne C]

Trying to forecast the weather has to be a frustrating job ;-)

[Jane Pittenger]

We have one of these too. 39.5” since October 10

[Diana]

Lovely shot of this very useful item.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

they are remarkably wrong too often 😊

[Susan Wakely]

This reminds me of the song Jeepers Creepers!

[Dione Giorgio]

It is very difficult for the weathermen to get things right here. The islands are so small that you can often see lots of rain on the horizon while we are sitting somewhere in the sunshine.

@kjarn LOL! They get it wrong more often than they get it right.

@corinnec Ha ha! I don't think they really care.

@jgpittenger That's a lot of rain!

@ludwigsdiana Thank you, Diana!

@koalagardens I know, right!

@wakelys I'll have to find that and read the lyrics. LOL!

@sangwann It is only a prediction and I know that. =)

[Peter Dulis]

thats handy to have

[Margaret Brown]

A very handy tool to have!

[Frances Claydon]

Useful to know how much you had compared to what was promised!

[Mags]

@pdulis Yes, it is. =)

@craftymeg Absolutely!

[Mags]

@francesc LOL! Yes, indeed. Their predictions are wrong more than they're right.

[Mags]

@wakelys LOL! Now I know why you said it reminded you of the song. I haven't heard that in years until I YouTubed it. =)

[Mags]

@bkbinthecity Thank you, BKB!

[Santina]

Interesting image, I had never seen this tool

[Mags]

@santina Thank you, Santina! They don't have rain gauges where you are?

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Very nice. That would be a good thing to have.

[Mags]

@mittens Thank you, Marilyn!
