The Week of June 17th -- Happy Twenty-Seventh Anniversary CoCoRaHS!

This week we celebrate CoCoRaHS's Twenty-Seventh Anniversary.  The CoCoRaHS website was launched June 17, 1998 -- officially marking the beginning of our volunteer rain gauge network. One hundred beginner weather observers reported that day. We now have close to 28,000 rain gauge observers who send in reports regularly or occasionally. Let's celebrate our 27th anniversary with everyone sending in their CoCoRaHS daily precipitation reports and setting a new all-time record for most CoCoRaHS reports in one day. 

For those of you who did not know, the number of reports received each day is listed just above the national map on our home page.

Thanks very much for all of your reports and being part of our CoCoRaHS team!
