Accumulated Rain total graph

Would it be practical for Cumulus to provide a graph in Select-A-Graph that graphed accumulated rain total over the selected period?
What I am looking for here is a visual display that will give me an idea where and how long the dry periods were being shown by long flat lines in the graph. It could be the compression of the graph for a long period would not make this useful.

Randy, my system is producing a PHP [link removed] but the maximum period covered is 96 hours, which is, more likely, not long enough for your purpose - just a suggestion...
The page for all the weather graphics is [link removed]

So far, Select-A-Graph just plots data that is directly available from the log files; so the accumulated rain plot returns to zero every day, the same as the log files. I would have to put some extra processing in. I'm not saying it couldn't be done, just that it's more work than simply plotting values from the log files.

Thanks Ray for the suggestion.
Steve, that makes sense. Cumulus does everything I want and a whole lot more already so this feature will not be missed. Thank you for the explanation.

Steve the new NOAA reports gave me the information I was looking for in the rain total graph. Thanks for adding the new reports.
Always interesting here with Cumulus.
