Beyond today's forecast

How much rain does the farm actually get?

Fifty inches a year, and 156 million gallons of it landing on our 115 acres. We measured it properly, from an 800 metre precipitation grid checked against 23 nearby rain gauges, including one that stood four and a half kilometres from the farm gate in the 1950s. The map switches between rainfall and terrain, and it shows why this valley is one of the driest spots in the High Country.
