The advantages of this type of gauge over tipping buckets are that it does not underestimate intense rain, and it can measure other forms of precipitation, including rain, hail and snow. These gauges are, however, more expensiveand require more maintenance than tipping bucket gauges.

Advantages

It helps to measure all forms of precipitation or rainfall which comprised of snow and rain.

By removing its funnel collector it permits the accumulation of solid rainfall and also plays significant role in estimating cold climates.

Disadvantages

Winds over 25 knots produce oscillations of the equilibrium creating errors in the recording.

Rain gauge does not estimate or designate the intensity of the air or winds.

A rain gauge can make rough calculations which may not be correct.
