Cumulus Not Pushing Rain Data to WeatherBug

[mallardnathan]

I've got one of our users who's emailed me saying Cumulus is not pushing his rain data to WeatherBug. I've attached the screenshots he's sent me. Here's his message:

Your image 1 shows no rain today/month
Cumulus image 2 shows .59 for today/1.46 for the month.

We updated our API a while back to resolve some issues with rain submissions. Did I ever get the updated API over to you? If not, here it is:

Here's high-res copies of our current logo as well if you ever need them:

Thanks!

As far as I can tell, Cumulus sends the monhtly rain total correctly; it uses the "monthlyrainin" parameter as in the document that you have attached. The example in that document appears not to match the specification which precedes it.

My current monthly rainfall in Cumulus is 64.0 mm. My weatherbug "page" shows 2.52 inches for the month, which is 64.0 mm. I don't know how to find my page that looks like the one in your screenshot.

Admittedly, I am not using the same version of Cumulus that everyone else is using, but the code in the currently available version of Cumulus sends exactly the same information. You haven't said which version this user is using, but presumably you have checked that they are using the latest version, given that the API changed at some point? I added the new parameters in Cumulus 1.9.4 build 1081, which was released about 18 months ago. If they turn on the debug log, the debug.log file will show the data which Cumulus is sending.
