1) Precipitation measurement is performed for liquid precipitation.
2) Cumulative accumulation after the latest automatic or manual reset
3) Due to the nature of the phenomenon, deviations caused by spatial variations may exist in
precipitation readings, especially in short time scale. The accuracy specification does not
include possible wind-induced error.
4) Cumulative number of hits against collecting surface
