Actually Flat Base Steel Utensil is used in Open Microwave Oven as it uses electro- magnetic induction techniques for heating, so material inside gets cooked but utensil remains cool on upper side so flat utensil are used, so you can asked for Flat base steel utensil for open microwave oven purpose. Here also Ambernath receives less rains than Badlapur but rains are measured at Ambernath only as it is an taluka place and Ambernath is 7kms away from Badlapur so much variations in Rains are possible . As from Badlapur, Matheran mountain ranges starts, so rains increases from here. Now best example is of today only, as per Agriculture collector office data in past 24hrs till today 8.30am Ambernath received 0mm, means no rains at all! But Badlapur received 2 heavy spells last night which I measured 10mms.Abhijit Modakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08373516043657476859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31136724.post-1462928115025607862012-07-23T20:27:18.352+05:302012-07-23T20:27:18.352+05:30@Abhijit, that is just great!

I have kept flat base steel utensil which do not have any cone or curve like shape with same radius and circumference from all side. And it is kept at open area where only rain drops will fall and other drops will not interfere with the utensil. So it measures the rains near to accurate. You can see the photo of mine guage also, if you are a member of vagaries of weather open group on Facebook !Abhijit Modakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08373516043657476859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31136724.post-65831416891725287462012-07-23T19:30:22.268+05:302012-07-23T19:30:22.268+05:30Cloudy evening in bangalore.
