Hi Jan,
That is no problem for the Netatmo Weather Station/rain gauge. The rain gauge uses the so-called "tipping bucket" design and can measure from 2mm to 900mm rainfall per hour. Note, that's "per hour" not "per day". 120 mm in a day is a lot of rain, but the Netatmo rain gauge can handle it no problem. Below is a link to a review which explains the tipping bucket design, the rain gauge also shows how much rain was measured per hour over a 24 hour period. http://www.tuaw.com/2014/04/24/netatmo-expands-ios-friendly-weather-station- with-rain-gauge/ The total investment is definitely not cheap. The main station with the main indoor and 1 outdoor module costs $179 US and the rain gauge is $79 US. You can also add up to 2 additional indoor modules which also cost $79 each. In other words, the weather station with the rain gauge would be $258 and if you added 1 additional indoor module it would be $337.

I was wondering about the rain guage, would be interesting to know what happens when it gets full, before the 24 hour period is up, when it empties itself. We had 120 mm (5 inches) the other day within 24 hours, and of course I was not at home to empty my normal guage. Will the guage empty itself when it gets full, or would you miss the extra inch that could not be measured then? Just curious about this, and would like to hear all your findings on this. I don't own a station myself here, a bit difficult to get this here in South Africa, but I am somehow wanting to get one, as weather always interested me. I keep a very basic spred sheet with temperatures wind and rainfall for each month, and a station measuring all of this by itself would be a great tool to have.

I am now looking forward to getting the rain gauge which shipped a few days ago and hopefully will arrive next week. I'll post a review once I have it connected to my Netatmo weather station and once it rains so I can test it!
