MBP: Any way to display inst. rain rate on wunderground? **solved**

I have a few stations pushing weather to wunderground, two of them using a meteobridge pro and one using an older hautespot. All three weather stations are vantage pro2's. on my hautespot, it pushes the rainrate off of the console, but on my other two meteobridge pros, it seems to be calculated within the software and sent to wunderground.

Let me provide examples of two of the weather servers.

Hautespot:

Meteobridge:

Thanks in advance

Here is another example from my other station running the MBP

Seems like the rain rate calculation is kind of pointless since it isn't given true rain rates...

WU defines rain rate as "fallen rain amount in last 60 minutes".

Thank you for the reply.

Is there any way to just switch to the data received from the weather station? I understand Wunderground's definition, but I feel Davis' definition of rainrate is more useful. I am sure there are a few other members that would like this feature as well.

Thanks!

Funny how I come back to this post by coincidence just over a year later.

I see you added the feature and it works great!

Thank you again.
