Change rainfall this year

Post by peterhendrix »

Hello,

I'am Peter from the Netherlands, so my dutch is better then my Engels :-)
Is it possible to change for example the yearly rainfall, I installed cumulus in the beginning of march, so the rest of the year I cannot see the rainfall.

Regards,

Peter

You can enter a 'year to date' figure for the period before you were using Cumulus, on the station settings screen, and then restart Cumulus.

The monthly totals are calculated from the daily totals in dayfile.txt. The only way to change a monthly total is to adjust one or more of the daily totals.

Yes, entries in dayfile.txt are added at the end of the day.
