Jeffersonian Rain Gauge
plus FREE Weather Stick
The first mechanical rain gauge of its kind. Measures up to 5" of rain in 1/5" increments using a float and lever to mechanically exaggerate the readings and improve accuracy and visibility. The gauge will turn into the wind to ensure the most accurate measurement or can be tightened down to fix its location. The body is solid brass and the pointer is stainless steel for contrast. Includes two connectible brass rods and a pressure treated wooden stake for ground installation. Also comes with a brass hanger bolt for optional mounting on a post, fence or deck rail. 12-1/2" wide x 42" tall (ground mounted) or 14" tall (post mounted). Conant Brass VRG7. $179.00 with FREE shipping.

Grande View Rain Gauge
This rain gauge can be placed far enough from the "rain shadow" of your house to get accurate readings, yet be visible to read from inside. As the water rises, the patent pending cylindrical glass vial acts as a magnifying lens making the cobalt blue numbers 50% larger. Can be placed in soft ground using the included twisting spiral stake. Also comes with a ring attachment for post mounting. Now available in two finishes: Solid brass that will age gracefully into a dark golden patina and eventually, a desirable verdigris (see images at left) or stainless steel that will maintain its luster (see images below). $39.00 plus $5.00 for shipping.

Grand View COMBO
Includes a Grande View rain gauge, a matching Grande View thermometer and a FREE Davis Hill weather stick. Choice of two finishes: Stainless steel (see images at left) or solid brass (see images above). $89.00 plus $5.00 for shipping.
