It is a very wet and stormy night here tonight. While enjoying watching my WeatherDuino Pro2 weather station receive the ever increasing rain data and displaying it in my weather software, I had a though which I had not considered before - "How much rain can fall (rain rate) before a standard, unmodified Fine Offset Rain Gauge starts over flowing from the top because it can not process all the rain through the small hole in the bottom?"
Has anyone taken measurements of this before? Filling it to the top and seeing what it would equate to in a rain rate?
