Mark, I record in inches so below is a sample of the file I've created. Would you prefer inches, millimetres or both? Date format okay?

Re: Rainfall too low
I've compared my December rainfall (149mm) to a station in Handforth (IWILMS14) which has a Davis VP2 and his is 145.8mm.
He bought his VP2 in early March 2022 ans his rainfall totals with a spoon mechanism is very close to mine.

Re: Rainfall too low
Hi Mark,
Happy New Year to you.
Here's my rainfall data as requested. I added an extra column for rainfall in mm as I store it in inches.
Let me know if there's anything else you need. I hope it helps and is in the required format.
Happy New Year to you.
