Ensure the rain gauge is mounted level to the ground,
away from any horizontal surface that can introduce
rain-splashing or surrounding snow buildup.
Note: If the rain gauge sensor was mounted less than
3.3 feet or 1 meter above the ground, the
electromagnetic waves would be absorbed by
the earth when raining. Which may cause
inaccurate rainfall data transmitting.

rain gauge sensor once fully assembled.
