Citizen Science Program Needs Your Help Observing the Weather!

The Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, and Snow network, or CoCoRaHS, is seeking new volunteer weather observers across the great state of North Carolina. CoCoRaHS was established in 2007 to obtain a better understanding of local weather and climate patterns by taking daily weather observations using a simple, low-cost rain gauge.

Volunteers may obtain an official rain gauge through the CoCoRaHS website for about $35 plus shipping. Besides the need for an official 4-inch plastic rain gauge, volunteers are asked to review simple training modules online and use the CoCoRaHS website to submit their reports. The process takes only five minutes a day, but the impact is tenfold: by providing high quality, accurate measurements, the observers are able to supplement existing networks and provide useful data to scientists, resource managers, and decision makers.

How does one become a CoCoRaHS observer? Go to the CoCoRaHS website, and click on the "Join CoCoRaHS" emblem on the upper right side of the website. After registering, take the simple online training, order your 4-inch rain gauge, and start reporting!
