Steve,

HTime=00:00

Yesterday=0.600006103515625

Yes, the 0.6 is supposed to be yesterday's total. The 0.3 is the highest rate today, which it thinks occurred at midnight (so may well be for yesterday's rain). All of this should be reflected on the main screen.

my rain has been cockeyed for 2 days AGAIN.

Like last time its cobwebs in the dipper.

I have now fitted a fine muslin screen to the underside exits with bluetack!

Muslin from craft shop supply, nicked from wifes cache haha, cost in pennies.
