TO much rain measured!

Post by MRTHUNDERROAD »

Hello all,
I usually download data every 10 days to 2 weeks. Today I downloaded and I had all time records for rain rate and rain/24 hour...The problem is it says over 15" for the rate and over 8" for the hour! This did not happen. MAYBE good hard cloudburst for 5 minutes but nothing more. Any ideas? How do I manually take that out?
Thanks,
Jack

It's a common problem with Fine Offset stations (electrical interference etc, or even the wind). Instructions for editing rain data are here: http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#My_sta ... it_to_zero
