Integrating WDisplay->converted to "Month-Year_log.txt"

I just tried a Cumulus NOAA monthly report for March 2015.
Previously I brought in about 5 years data from Weather Display using your WD Converter program (thanks).
So, March has data in it from the first of the month.

I started using Cumulus on the 7th of March.

Yet NOAA-Monthly (now) starts from the first of March.

So where else must I show Cumulus that the total data starts a few years ago?

thanks ...

Most of the data for the NOAA reports comes from dayfile.txt (the file containing the daily summaries). The converter should have created a dayfile.txt for your old data, you would need to merge this onto the front of your 'real' dayfile.txt in Cumulus, making sure you don't introduce any blank lines.

There is not a new dayfile, in the "converted" folder after rtunning the Converter.

So I ran it three times, still nil .

there is an errorlog:

12012lg.txt line 1: ''day'' is not a valid integer value
42014lg.txt line 23376: List index out of bounds (0)
72014lg.txt line 424: List index out of bounds (0)
92014lg.txt line 11032: List index out of bounds (0)

Use 'create missing' in the dayfile.txt editor in Cumulus, that will create the required entries in dayfile.txt from the log data.

I seemed to have figured that out after re-reading one of your replies. Thanks! runnin' on 32 cylinders now

Finally. I am at last able to see "If" a temperature or a rainfall is a personal-best.

Or not.

Couldn't ever figure out how to do that with the other software.

I guess my weather is no where to compare with your Orkney weather. But I like to follow mine pretty closely. We've had flooding the past three or four days affecting us personally.
