From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Some questions from user mdlawdler:
1. How can I get the time back along with the date for the last rain?
2. How can I copy the noaa reports to my local web server? Since they are dynamic file names I don't see how to add them to extra web files.
3. Can something be done to the alarms page so that the table reads better when tabbing through it?
4. Can you tell me how to set the notify for upgrade alarm so that I get an email when there is an upgrade? I don't understand the latching stuff. I currently have this
UpgradeAlarmSet=1
UpgradeAlarmSound=0
UpgradeAlarmSoundFile=alarm.mp3
UpgradeAlarmNotify=1
UpgradeAlarmLatch=1
UpgradeAlarmHours=0
UpgradeAlarmLatchHours=24
UpgradeAlarmEmail=1

1. There was a post about this today - viewtopic.php?f=14&t=19351
For the defult web site that tag would have to be edited in the /web/websitedataT.json file.

2. There was a recent post about this as well - I put adding variable names for the NOAA reports in Extra Web Files on the ToDo list - it may make the next release.

3. I'll have a bash at adding some screen reader tags to that page.

4. For the Upgrade alarm you do not have to use latching, once triggered it will remain triggered until you stop Cumulus.
Just enable the alarm, and enable emails.
UpgradeAlarmSet=1
UpgradeAlarmEmail=1
