Other heavy rainfall places in Tamilnadu and All about Rain Guage

Some of other places which also record more than 400 cm rainfall. 
A few among them is 
[1] Balamore  (Kanyakumari district)
[2] Upper Kothiyar (Kanyakumari district)
[3] Kuthiraivetti & Poolankudiyeruppu (>300 cm) in Tirunelveli district
[4] Agamalai in Theni district.


Further, please ascertain that the raingauge stations are having the right raingauge [FRP type / 200sq.cm collector area or SIMON type 127 sq.cm collector area] and having relevent [20mm /25mm] measure glass respectively.
If they have one type of raingauge and measure rainfall with other irrelevant measure glass then the measurement is faulty. Moreover the time of observation is also important. It is 0830 hrs IST ending of date and should be entered in to date's account.
Then only comparision is reliable.
