Fixing regular erroneous data

Gday,

On a regular basis (maybe once a week) I am getting erroneous temp value, seems to be always -22.4C. Being in Australia there is no way that would of been accurate.

I have been editting the alltime.ini to correct the values, however now I realise that I would have to edit the month.ini and year.ini, so will get a bit tedious.

I'm not sure how many people experience a similar situation, but I am wondering if there has been any thought into maybe automating a revert to previous value or being able to set min/max values that data outside of this range would be ignored?

Cumulus has its own fixed limits for discarding readings, but they only filter obviously incorrect values (ignoring locality etc), which yours doesn't fall into. But yes, I had been considering making the limits configurable.

I'd have thought the 'spike removal' settings would be able to filter it out, though.
