If you REALLY want to know, then learn to read your water meter; time it for a representative fraction of your watering, say 5 minutes. Then multiply the total number of gallons used during your five minutes by 12 (since there are 12 5minute periods in an hour).
Some water meters read in cubic feet; there are 7.48 gallons per cubic foot.

Thats a tough one. I live in the northeast and mother nature usually provide all the water my lawn needs.
However when I go out to 'water the lawn', best I can do is about a pint per minute, for about a minute. Then my bladders empty.
I guess if I could maintain that rate, it would equal about 7 1/2 gallons per hour?
