Hello, everyone.

I installed the cumulus 1.9. In the beginning everything was normal, but after 10 minutes, everything disrupted.
Daily rain is gone from 48 mm to just 0,5 mm. Then, last hour rain says 49,2. How is this possible, when during the day so much rain fell, not in one hour.

I noticed also that my Cumulus forecast stopped working, always says only this: Exceptional weather, stormy, much precipitation, regardless of whether pressure rose or fell.

Cumulus 1.9 Is a great software. Hopefully that in the future be less bugs. One suggestion for the end: I think that will be good to add in the next releases trend of temperature in relation to the day before, that can be see for exactly how many °C, or °F is the day colder or warmer, then the day before, at the same time. (Like Virtual Weather Software has)

I hope you can help me regarding the above problems, that i wrote. Thats all of me for now. Bye. :)

Please zip up the diags folder and your November log file and attach the zip file here.

This is normally caused by the pressure falling outside the extremes that you have configured - have you changed these, or is your pressure reading incorrect? Have you seen the FAQ about this?

Yes, let's hope so.

By the way, how is your station connected to your PC?

I cant set limits of the forecast, when i try, appears to me the following: Minimal pressure 9999 hPa, High: 9999 hPa, and the same for low. When i try to change it, nothing happens.

USB to serial adapter, on 1.8 version worked fine, on 1.9 problems.
What do you think of my suggestion for daily temperature trend
(for example like this:
Temperature: 23,4°C
Trend: -1,0 °C/hr
Trend: -2,3°C/24hr
is it possible to insert in one of next releases?

That's your problem, then.

At some point, possibly. Please create an enhancement request.

I recall data from 4. November, when I use 1.8. version, and now everything works just fine, except, daily rain whichz is now on 0,0 mm, and yesterday rain shows today rain. :lol:

Could you describe me what is apparent temperature? I see that is new at 1.9. version.

I am again on Cumulus 1.8 and dont touch anything.
