In October of 2007, Floridians began reporting how much rain, hail, or snow they measured
in their backyards by joining the Community Collaborative
Rain, Hail, and Snow Network - CoCoRaHS. Georgia volunteers began joining in May 2008. The CoCoRaHS program will help
meteorologists, researchers, the media, and others see and study the
variability of precipitation across the area. The accumulated precipitation data will be available to anyone using the web.
Local Volunteer Coordinators are
needed now to help build this network across Georgia and Florida. The main duties of the
volunteer coordinators will be to help answer new observer questions, contact
new observers to help start reporting, and help with training - although
training slides and information are available at the CoCoRaHS web site. Other Volunteer Coordinator duties along with answers to most questions can be found searching through the tabs on the CoCoRaHS main web page.
Please visit the CoCoRaHS web site
at: http://www.cocorahs.org to learn more
about the program. Then, contact our office if you would like to signup
to be a Volunteer Coordinator for your county in Southeast Georgia or
Northeast Florida. If you would like to be a coordinator or assist a coordinator, you can contact us by sending an email.
