Theoretically by [lgt0total-nonzerotime=epoch] - this will provide (in theory) the unix time in seconds since 1.1.1970.
If you need another time format, you will have to change the conversion (what's behind the "="). Details see Meteobridge WiKi - Templates.

I say theoretically, because (not only) in my case it turns out that there is still some bug in the software - see

I may be a temporary joy only ... (unless you have enough lightning strikes so that the observed phenomenon [see thread] doesn't occur).
