Rain not increasing

[Mark Fraser]

Recently I've noticed that I'm not recording any rain even though it is being received:

The only change I've done is to add the changes mentioned here https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/JuCHnmmijFE to correct the lightning strike values.

You might want to post a WeeWX startup log with debug=1. A copy of the [SDR] stanza from your weewx.conf would be helpful too.

Originally I had:
[[sensor_map]]
windGust = wind_gust.240.FOWHx080Packet
outTempBatteryStatus = battery.240.FOWHx080Packet
rain_total = rain_total.240.FOWHx080Packet
windSpeed = wind_speed.240.FOWHx080Packet
windDir = wind_dir.240.FOWHx080Packet
outHumidity = humidity.13.FOWH32Packet
outTemp = temperature.13.FOWH32Packet
batteryStatus4 = battery.13.FOWH32Packet
pressure = pressure.91.FOWH25BPacket
extraTemp1 = temperature.91.FOWH25BPacket
extraHumid1 = humidity.91.FOWH25BPacket
batteryStatus2 = battery.91.FOWH25BPacket
strike_total = strikes_total.52017.FOWH31LPacket
lightning_distance = distance.52017.FOWH31LPacket
txBatteryStatus = battery.52017.FOWH31LPacket
soilMoist1 = soil_moisture_percent.00dc59.FOWH51Packet
batteryStatus1 = battery_ok.00dc59.FOWH51Packet
supplyVoltage = battery_mV.00dc59.FOWH51Packet
inTemp = temperature.175.AmbientWH31EPacket
inHumidity = humidity.175.AmbientWH31EPacket
inTempBatteryStatus = battery.175.AmbientWH31EPacket
extraTemp2 = temperature.142.AmbientWH31EPacket
extraHumid2 = humidity.142.AmbientWH31EPacket
batteryStatus3 = battery.142.AmbientWH31EPacket

with
[[deltas]]
lightning_strike_count = strike_total
but that only showed 1 entry under deltas.
Nov 1 08:23:36 weather-new weewx[6400] INFO user.sdr: deltas is
{'lightning_strike_count': 'strike_total'}

Renaming strike_total to strikes_total and removing the deltas entry
seems to have fixed it.
