Solution

We should take precautions for accurate measurement of precipitation in the form of sleet as
  • Locate a surface that is solid, level and in the open.
  • Avoid measuring sleet depth under trees or directly next to buildings.
  • Slide the ruler directly downward into the sleet until it reaches the ground.
  • Read the value on the ruler to the nearest tenth of an inch, if possible and then record this value on your piece of paper.
