Weather Variables (Davis Vantage Pro 2)

[Rui Pinto]

Hello!! I have a Davis Vantage Pro2 station and i utilized Weewx to do interface with the console to get the data from it.

It's working fine. The only problem is that i don't understand what some values of the variables actually mean (for example: rxCheckPercent, Sunset, ForecastRule, ForecastIcon, etc).

If anyone knows where can i get the information to this variables would be great.

Here's an JSON example of the variables of the station:

Most of these are documented in the Davis API manual.

Others I don't recognize (rain24_cm? radiation_Wpm2?)
