Strange Graphs

[Super-T]

Anyone seen this before and know how to fix? Perhaps it is in another thread but couldn't find it?
I've reloaded the data from before when the problem happened and think it has something to do with the setting of "Spike Removal". Had 0.3 in spike removal for temp and that had been working well. Removed the setting and relaoded data but no joy.
Can't see anything wrong in the actual Data.

It looks like you have two sets of data for the same period, with one set of data just repeating the same value. If restarting Cumulus doesn't change anything, then the values must be in the October log. If you zip up the diags folder and attach it with the October log file, I'll take a look.

Thanks Steve...I'll look first. I did a quick quizz of the data but couldn't see anything amiss.

You didn't 'rewind' by just editing today.ini after a period when the data had flatlined, due to the spike removal triggering, perhaps?

[Super-T]

Yes, data doubled up in the October file. If I go back to 29/9/2012 and then Cumulus gets the data I then seem to get the double data.
NZ changed to daylight saving last Sunday morning at 2am. Perhaps this has caused a problem.
Diags etc. attached.

If you rewind by copying the data from a backup folder, and you go back to a point in the previous month, you have to also delete the log file for the current month, as otherwise new data will just get appended to it, creating duplicates.

I reloaded from an October 1st backup nad remembered I had a flatline there. I think the doubled data came when I went back to 29th sept.

Edit....oops overlap.

I'll delete the october log and go back to sept 29

[Super-T]

No, I didn't rewind by editing the today.ini. I copied from the back all of the files in 29th and overwrote in the data directory.
Yes, it had flatlined.

All good now....thanks very much....vinaka vaka levu...in fijian

Not deleting the October was my "senior moment"
