Precipitation record from Old Headquarters, Black Rock Forest, Cornwall, NY 1960 - 2023

Black Rock Forest has been measuring precipitation using an aluminum bucket gauge since 1960. Total rainfall is measured after each event to the nearest hundredth of an inch. Snow depth is measured adjacent to the bucket and snow in the collection bucket is melted to determine the snow water equivalent. The gauge is located in a meadow at 129 Continental Road, Cornwall, New York.

黑石森林（Black Rock Forest）自1960年起便采用铝制桶式雨量计（aluminum bucket gauge）开展降水观测。每场降水事件结束后，会对总降雨量进行测量，测量精度精确至百分之一英寸。雪深会在雨量桶旁进行测定，同时将收集桶内的积雪融化以确定雪水当量（snow water equivalent）。该雨量计的布设点位位于美国纽约州康沃尔市大陆路（Continental Road）129号的一片草甸之中。
