For some reason I am showing an abnormally high rainfall for the year of over 300 inches. I have been through all of my data files and cannot find where the problem is. I have attempted to correct this issue manually, but this error is still showing. Any help would be appreciated.

Fine Offset stations have a habit of introducing bogus rainfall. Cumulus generally copes with obviously false increases in the total, but something unusual may have happened that it didn't cater for. The annual total is calculated from the daily totals in dayfile.txt. You can use the dayfile.txt editor in Cumulus to look for any obviously high daily totals and adjust them to something more reasonable. If you then restart Cumulus, the annual total will be recalculated.
If for some reason you can't find the problem, zip up the diags folder and attach it, together with your dayfile.txt file.
