Wireless Rain Gauge with Self-Emptying Rain Collector

a backyard wireless rain gauge that empties itself, logs rainfall, and sends alerts — for the person who treats the forecast like a sport.

this little AcuRite gadget lives outside and keeps score on the rain. the collector self-empties so you don’t have to climb out into mud after every storm. it keeps rainfall history and can give alerts, so you can see what actually fell overnight. it even shows the current date and time, a small but oddly satisfying detail for anyone who tracks storms like a hobby.
