Rainfall Totals with Weatherflow Tempest

[Jeremy Alexander]

Rain totals in WeeWX are not matching what I see in the Weatherflow app.

For instance, I am seeing 0.51" in the WeeWX MariaDB and I'm only seeing 0.34" in the Weatherflow app. Any idea why this would be? What can I do to correct?

You likely have RainCheck enabled in your WF settings.  If so, they modify your readings based on data from nearby stations early in the morning the day afterward.   Turn that off to disable them "helping".

Thanks but I do have the NC Rain option toggled off within the tempest app. https://help.weatherflow.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024436634-NC-Rain-NearCast-Rain-

When you say you are seeing 0.51" in the database, what do you mean? What query did you use?

Hi Tom,

I used: the query below and looked at the sum column which that value shows as 1.034435039370079 which is what I see on WU and PWS for rainfall today.

SELECT *
FROM weewx.archive_day_rain
where dateTime = '1643781600'

I would just compare my NOAA rain total for a particular date with what WF shows on their site.
