Hi

I have Belchertown skin and I am observing that the total rainfall readings that appear in the graph are always 0.2 mm higher than the main reading. Any ideas about it?

best regards.

I bet it was raining at midnight and the difference is the rain value from the archive record timestamped 00:00 - the contents of which actually refer to the previous day.

yes, you are right, I have been checking the archive record and that's where the problem comes from. Thank you for your response.

Do you have a link to your site? I'd like to look a little closer. Is your rain graph using 25 hours? Or as Andrew pointed out, is it really a 00:00 timestamp issue?

Hi

here is the url to my weather station website

attached two images. Last night started to rain at 00:40 a.m so today the graph works fine. I think Andrew was right because the other night was rainning all night long so could it be a 00:00 timestam issue.

Hi Patrick

My weather station is Davis Vantage Pro2 (EU Version – Metric Units - 0.2 mm resolution) so precipitation is measured in mm equivalent to l/m2
