Terms

These terms cover the RainLog website run by Tony Hirst LLC, 110 Woodlawn Dr, Clarksville, VA 23927.

The product

RainLog is a weather log. It counts days with 0.10 inches of precipitation or more at a nearby NOAA station, and it can list schedule tasks that overlap those days. It is not a legal finding, a construction opinion, or a determination of excusable delay.

A forecast alert is a heads-up from the National Weather Service for the next 24, 48, or 72 hours. It can miss. The dated NOAA log remains the record of what fell. The checklist in an alert is a reminder drawn from the task names on those days. Radar shows recent RainViewer images around the job. A site photo stays in RainLog with the day you choose.

RainLog is not Buildertrend and is not endorsed by Buildertrend. It does not ask for a Buildertrend password, and it does not upload photos or files to Buildertrend. A schedule is a task list you paste or a CSV you provide.

The price

The first job is free. It includes the rain calendar, weather pulls, the schedule, forecast alerts, radar, site photos, and the one-page PDF. The company plan is $20 a month. It opens every saved job, up to 200. Stripe bills the card. RainLog does not store the card number. You can cancel from the billing page. A canceled plan leaves your jobs in the account and returns you to the one free job, which is the oldest job.
