Deleteing Highest rain rate in all time records

[Spudler]

I accidentally messed up and had my weather station connected and running cumulus when I moved my rain gauge to a new location and in doing so it registered a Highest rain rate in all time records of 39.33" I need to delete that 1 record so I can start fresh as There will never be a day where I get 39.33 " or rain per hour.
I do not want to delete any other data just that one record as all else seems to be correct.

There is information on correcting rainfall data in the FAQ - http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#My_sta ... _figure.29

If you really want to just change the all-time record and you're sure the figure doesn't appear anywhere else (which would be unusual), just go straight to the all-time record editor in Cumulus and correct it there. The alltimelog.txt file will show you what the previous record was.

Thanks, About 2 hours after I posted this I figured out how to change the all time rain record, and I am so glad I did as about 3 min after I reset it We ended up getting pummeled at .62" per hour, Which I am pretty sure would of been the all-time record since October anyway, seeing how we have had a strange year as far as temps and rainfall.

Glad you fixed it up. I'm also sure you will smash that rain rate record too. My "lowest" rain rate record for our "Wet Season" is 5.1"/hr based off the 5 minute average. You will see some of the Davis records much higher than this too, but typically their highest rain rates are calculated in 2-3 seconds from the fastest 2 consecutive bucket tips.
