There was a 40% chance for Saturday I think, but that's down to 0 and the same for the next 10 days. Maybe that will change though???<br /><br />Dani, the calculator says for a 1 inch rain I should get 182 gallons. Not great, but nothing to turn my nose up over.<br />tffnguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01830558433596399955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051650307488354823.post-62558165421185312422013-05-16T05:13:03.635-05:002013-05-16T05:13:03.635-05:00WhoooHoooooo!!

I can remove that and clean it occasionally. What ever the amount I got went in to the tank. Of course any bird droppings on the roof will be washed in to the tank as liquid. I don't like that idea, but you use bleach every so often to sterilize the water. I don't drink it though. I buy drinking water separate.tffnguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01830558433596399955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051650307488354823.post-25196219961372343142013-05-15T09:54:12.334-05:002013-05-15T09:54:12.334-05:00It sounds like your catchment system does a great ...It sounds like your catchment system does a great job, that many gallons from hardly any rain. Do you throw away the firs run-off that would clean your roof or do you save it all and let the dust and dirt settle to the bottom?Dizzy-Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150939928800538404noreply@blogger.com
