Re: Create Missing for 24 hour rain data into dayfile
That looks correct to me.
The value recorded in the dayfile is the HIGHEST 24 hour rain value recorded that day. If there was lots of rain the previous day, and no rain today, then todays highest value would be at the start or day (00:00), when it would record all the previous days rainfall.
When using the values, CMX will always use the first highest value, so the same value at 00:00 the following day will be ignored - unless that day is the first day in the period being queried!
