rain gauge reset

Post by Bailey »

The reported rainfall rate hangs up on .2 inches/hour and will not reset to 0.0. I have updated the software on my hub and the display on my WMR968 is showing 0.0, it is just what is being reported to weatherunderground.

Here is my site, just had Hurricane Hanna go by:

The site looks okay now I think (but I don't use WU much, so maybe I'm misreading).
How long did you given it?
IIRC the WMR928/968 rain sensor reports the last calculated rate for something like 2hrs if there is no further rain.

It has been 15 or more hours since the last rainfall and it has reported 3.0 inches of rain (15 x 0.2).

I think it is a software bug.
