A rain gauge measures how much rain has fallen. The top of the rain gauge may be wider than the bottom. This allows the rain gauge to catch more rain when a small amount falls. It also makes measuring small amounts of rain easier. |

Radar can measure
the winds and precipitation inside a storm. The radar station sends
out
energy similar to signals from a radio station.
Some of the energy bounces back from objects, including raindrops.
Changes in the returning energy show the direction and speed of
a
rainstorm. |
