How to make a Wind Vane( includes general wind direction collection)

Note: the crayons for decorations are optional , may not need it.

                                  How it should look like( design is optional!! but the direction marks are a must!)

Rainfall collection :)

(From 1st  to 7th June 2011)

1st June: 19mm

2nd June: 0mm

3rd June: 28mm

4th June: 40mm

5th June: 88mm

6th June: 40mm

7th June: 21mm 

Total amount of rain collected: 236mm

How to make a Rain Gauge:

Step 1: Take a empty plastic bottle of any size( e.g. 1.5 litre bottle(recommended). Cut th top of the bottle about a quater of  the way down where it meets the consistent diameter.

Step 2: Remove the bottle cap and invert the upper part of the bottle as the bottom part / as the funnel.

Step 3:Place the rain gauge in an open area where it will collect rain and a place where the trees or buildings would not block the rain gauge.

Step 4: Start measuring. Measure the amount of rainfall collected every morning at a fixed time.

                                                       how it looks like in the end.

Rain Gauge

             The Rain Gauge is used to measure rainfall. A Rain Gauge should be placed 30 cm above the ground in an open area where there are no trees or buildings to block the rain, and where only rainfall can enter the rain gauge. The rain collected in the rain gauge is usually measured every morning with a measuring cylinder at a fixed time. The measurement constitutes the daily rainfall and is recorded in millimetres(mm). By adding up the amount of rain collected in a month, we get the monthly rainfall. The total amount of rainfall collected over 12 months is the annual rainfall.

six's thermometer

A six's thermometer is used to find out the maximum and minimum temperature in a day. It gives three readings, the current temperature, the highest temperature reached since it was last reset, and the lowest temperature reached since it was last reset. It consists of a U-shaped  glass tube with two separate temperature scales set along each arm of the U. One of these is for recording the maximum temperature encountered and the other for the minimum temperature. The arms of the U-shaped tube terminate in sealed glass bulbs. The bulb at the top of the minimum reading scale arm is full of alcohol, the other contains a vacuum.

wind vane

A wind vane is a device which is designed to test out the wind position. The wind vane is placed on the roof of a house, where there is nothing blocking it . The points of the wind vane is made by light metals so that it will change directions according to the wind directions. There is usually only 2 points - north and south. The arrowhead will point to the direction of the wind.
