What to do with the rain gauge water?
I just bought one of those rain gauges that you stick in the lawn. I
carefully followed the instructions that came with it and it seems to work because it rained over the weekend and it shows that we got almost an inch. However, I got a problem. The instructions did not say what to do with the water inside. I know it needs to be removed, but what should I do with it? I dont want to just dump it on the lawn because that would screw up the lawn in that spot because the lawn would end up being confused and unbalanced, and possibly even damage the ecosystem in my region of the country. Besides, this is apparently special water since it got inside that little tube, so it needs to be put in a special place. But where? I dont understand why they dont mention this in the instructions.
