Several times recently I've noticed a few tenths of a mm after a shower,

Is this evaporation problem just an 'occupational' hazard, or is there
anything that can be done about it?

You don't say what sort of gauge you've got, or how it's situated.

Standard copper 5" gauge, but in a small garden with trees 'too close'
(but not overhanging, obviously).
