Rainfall difference

Post by Potterne Weather »

Hi All

I have been using Cumulus with my Davis Vue for a couple of days, When i started my pc this morning and the data uploaded the rain fall on my davis read 6.2mm and cumulus was saying 7.4mm. i appreciate that at midnight Davis reset all max mins and rain fall, and prior to midnight we had 0.4mm.

Can any one help and inform me why this happened

Many thanks

Paul

Which particular rain figure are you referring to - today's total? If you zip up the diags folder and attach it, I'll take a look.

Hi

It was the daily total that was different to the display on the davis.

I have opened the diags folder, which ones do you need me to attach
