This is my wireless self-tipping rain gauge that sits in the back garden recording all the rain we have been having this August. During heavy rain the digital display in the sitting room ticks over really fast and Husband and I have bets as to how much it will record in one episode of rain. I have kept notes on the weather for the past 30 years and the most rain received in a day was 78mm.
It is a good thing I do not have a sunshine recorder (expensive) - it would be out of work!
