Description
The Climalytic Snow Ruler is the weather-watching tool you didn’t know you needed. The ruler or yardstick has been the tool of choice for winter weather watchers for generations. While good for a general idea of snowfall, it shouldn’t be considered accurate. Consider this:
- Most rulers and yardsticks are printed as promotional items rather than as scientific instruments.
- Many rulers start measuring about 1/4″ from the edge (or more).
- Non-wood rulers are better since they don’t rot. In colder weather, they can be uncomfortable to handle or freeze to your gloves.
Climalytic Instruments has addressed all these issues in a single innovative product that is a must-have for weather spotters. Included in the box are the ruler and a snow measurement guide to help you measure accurately.
There are three main reasons why you should consider the Climalytic Snow Ruler:
Solid construction: The ruler is composed of lightweight, yet very rigid, fiberglass-reinforced epoxy laminate (FR-4), a high-strength material used to make printed circuit boards. Epoxy laminate has the added benefit of remaining comfortable to the touch even in low temperatures, and can break through tough ice and snow without breaking.
Unlike most yardsticks, the ruler’s graduations are etched into the laminate to prevent wear. A hole at the top of the ruler allows for convenient hanging when not in use and easy locating.
High visibility: At 39″ long and just over 1.5″ wide, the ruler is larger than your typical yardstick. This larger size allows for high-contrast, easy-to-read labels that are visible even from a distance. Larger marks every half and full inch make quick measurements easy.
Highly accurate: The Climalytic Snow Ruler measures in imperial (inches) units on one side and metric (cm) units on the other, with 0.1-inch and 0.5-cm resolution. Unlike some rulers, these graduations are accurate by, and they start from the base of the ruler.
In addition to snowfall measurement, this ruler is helpful for numerous other household activities year-round, so don’t just buy it to measure snow! We recommend purchasing the Climalytic Snow Board for the most accurate snowfall measurements.
