Temps over 100 F show full degrees only on Weather undergrou

I have an Ambient Weather WS-2080 and I am running Cumulus 1.8.9 on Windows XP.

I upload my weather data to a site on Weather Underground (http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstat ... KTXDALLA80). When the temperature goes above 99.9 degrees F, the temperature displayed on the Weather Underground site is always in full degrees - 100.0, 101.0, etc.

There are other sites in the area running other software that are displaying tenths of degrees on Weather Underground so I don't think the issue is on their end. I didn't see any other Cumulus stations near me on the WU map so I'm not sure if it only happens on Fine Offset type stations.

The Cumulus display is showing tenths of degrees - it is only when it uploads to WU that it gets truncated/rounded.

Is there a setting I need to change somewhere to get it to display tenths of degrees on WU when the temperature goes over 100?

No - it's a bug. I'm forcing it to 3 significant figures. I'll fix it.

I suppose you don't need to worry about temps over 100 in the Orkneys

Not very often ;)

It rarely gets above 70F here; today was our warmest day of the year so far - 66F.
