Rain (again)

Post by robynfali »

Due to the high weather, and my ineptitude in making sure the rain collector was stable, i have invented rain over the last couple of days, over a meter's worth.

I have edited the dayfile.txt to reduce yesterdays amount (559.2 total....12.6 actual) but it doesn't reflect this on the website.

I am considering just resetting everything, to start from scratch, but that seems a little drastic, any help/tips appreciated

Oh, and I don't mind doing a total reset, just prefer not to

You will need to check your yesterday.ini and today.ini too.

Make sure you edit all these files when Cumulus is closed down.

Consider this in the FAQ too http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#My_sta ... it_to_zero

TIP -- Always unplug the rain collector (if you can) when doing maintenance as it is pain to adjust the data!
