KRFC Communities that Work host Richard Cox has a conversation with Noah Newman, Education and Outreach Coordinator for CoCoRaHS.
The Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network, or CoCoRaHS, is a non-profit, community-based network of volunteers of all ages and backgrounds working together to measure and map precipitation (rain, hail, and snow).
Trained volunteers use low-cost measurement tools and an interactive website to provide high-quality data for natural resource, education, and research applications.
The network originated with the Colorado Climate Center at Colorado State University in 1998 as a result of a devastating flood in Fort Collins the preceding year. It now includes almost 20,000 volunteers in all 50 states, as well as Canada.
