Lack of Rainfall Rate

I have just noticed that since 9 Nov the max rainfall rate I have recorded has been 3.4 mm / hr and today despite getting 4.6 mm of rain the max rainfall rate is 0.0 which seems bizarre considering the active trough that went through early afternoon.
Is this my system or has there been a change in the recent software?

Hi,
Have you checked the rain gauge and see if there is any obstruction?

Enjoy,
Paul

I hadn't as it was still reporting rainfall totals, just not rainfall rate, so assumed it was ok. However having just checked it appears it may have been blocked or at least partially blocked enough not to produce a rainfall rate but still allow the rainfall to trickle through. Anyway have cleared it and now just waiting for some rain to check.
Thanks for suggestion
