Rainfall Cask Diary

Read your own rain gauge, log the millimetres, and see at a glance whether the beds need water and how full the barrel is - fully offline. Rainfall Cask Diary is a quiet, practical journal for gardeners who keep a manual rain gauge. Walk out, read the cylinder, tap in the number. The app turns those daily readings into totals, charts, a soil water balance and a rain-barrel estimate. LOG IN SECONDS - Enter a daily gauge reading in millimetres or inches, with optional snow-water. - Log today or any past day; a new reading for the same day replaces the old one. - The Today tab shows an animated gauge cylinder filled to your last reading, with 7-day, 30-day and month totals. SEE THE PATTERN - Rolling 7- and 30-day totals plus weekly, monthly and seasonal aggregates. - Dry spells - runs of consecutive days under 1 mm - appear as ochre bands on the chart, so a long gap between showers is impossible to miss. KNOW WHEN TO WATER - A soil water bucket for sand, loam or clay fills with rain, drains above capacity and dries by a monthly evaporation rate for your climate band. - When the bucket drops below half, the app suggests watering and tells you the deficit in litres for your bed area. FILL THE BARREL - Roof catchment calculator: roof area x rain x runoff coefficient gives the litres flowing into your barrel. - An animated barrel fills up to its capacity and shows the overflow when the rain outpaces it. WHAT YOU GET - Manual rain-gauge journal in millimetres or inches, with optional snow-water - Daily, weekly, monthly and seasonal charts with dry-spell bands - Soil water balance for sand, loam or clay with watering suggestions in litres - Roof catchment calculator with an animated barrel that fills and overflows - No account, no internet, no ads - your readings stay on your device Five simple tabs - Today, Chart, Soil, Barrel and History - keep everything one tap away.
