∙ 9y agoWherever extreme weather does not impede collection is where people use rain gauges. The instrument in question is employed by farmers, gardeners, and researchers to ascertain the amount and timing of liquid precipitation (rainfall, as opposed to hail, sleet, snow) and to collect thereby such vital information as air and water pollution, moisture levels, and water cycle performance.

When do meteorologists use rain gauges?
meteorologists use rain gauges to measures the rain everyday
Why do gardeners use rain gauges?
farmers use rain gauges in their farms to know the amount of rainfall so that they could cultivate different crops by knowing the amount of rainfall
Which do meteorologists use to measure the amount of precipitation that falls during a Storm?
Meteorologists use rain gauges to measure the amount of precipitation that falls during a storm. These gauges are designed to collect and measure the volume of rainwater that accumulates in them. The data from rain gauges help meteorologists to accurately report the amount of rainfall in a particular area.

Rainfall is measured by?
Rain gauges are calibrated in millimeters
How do you measure precipation?
with instruments like rain gauges and stuff you would use to measure snow and those type of stuff
Why do meterologists use rain gauges?
Meteorologists use rain guages to measure how much precipitation has fallen in a period of time. It is a good tool to aid in their predictions of average rainfall monthly, yearly, etc.
Does a rain gauge easure in inches?
Some rain gauges are calibrated in centimeters; some have both CM and inches
What is an fact about a rain gauge?
They don't work in hurricanes. No water will collect in the cylinder because of too strong of winds. Most rain gauges are inaccurate because of wind. Rain gauges don't work in certain temperature ranges because the precipitation will freeze. !
Why farmers use rain gauges?
They simply use water gages to see how much water is in the ground. It depends on which water gauge you are talking about, it could be the reason i just stated or to see how much it is going to rain, or how much water is below the surface.
