Hi All
I am wondering if I need to do anything to Cumulus, weather station or computer on the weekend when we start daylight savings.
At 2am on Sunday 3rd we move our clocks forward 1 hour. My computer is set to automatically change but what about Cumulus or my station?
cheers
Adrian

Re: Time change
Cumulus uses your PC clock, so best to leave your Cumulus running if you can. You may get a duplicate set of data for an hour (or not!)

Re: Time change
This is what happened 4 Oct last year with my data
Can't remember what I did when it ended, probably checked/edited the log file the next morning.

Re: Time change
Yep it seems to be handled OK, time just skips an hour in the data files, and the graphs showed flat-lined data between 2-3am (we went an hour forward on 26th Sep in NZ)
