Please zip up the diags folder and attach it, along with your dayfile.txt.

It appears to have calculated the monthly and annual totals correctly at start up:

22/10/2014 09:24:54.380 : Rainthismonth from dayfile.txt: 81.9000015258789
22/10/2014 09:24:54.380 : Rainthisyear from dayfile.txt: 833.099853515625

And if use your dayfile.txt, the figure shows on the main screen correctly:
2014-10-22 17_05_30-Cumulus.png
The rain figures get updated each time a rain data packet is received, so I think the problem must be that your rain gauge is not transmitting. Is the console showing rain data? Did you leave Cumulus running long enough for a rain packet to be received?
