Meteobridge/Davis Vantage..
(this was posted under Weather Station Hardware, I deleted and re-entered

Wunderground Daily Precipitation, Current, High, Low Average incorrect.
It appears daily history for Current will show current precipitation, while it is raining.
However, it will reset to 0 when it stops. Values for High/Low/Average do not appear.
I am not sure if this is a problem at Wunderground, or with Meteobridge.
dailyrainin is zero. Right now it should show the total rain we had for today, .22

rainin - [rain inches over the past hour)] -- the accumulated rainfall in the past 60 min
dailyrainin - [rain inches so far today in local time]

I see similar data with Saratoga-Weather, however I can correct that with a change to
the data passed in the http push. I see no way to modify what is sent to Wunderground.

Thanks.

do you see correct values for daily rain on "live data" tab of Meteobridge?

Posted: **Tue Jul 23, 2013 1:42 am**

I checked with my station and dailyrain does work and increments fine when I simulate rain.
After having started Meteobridge it can pass the first rain signal, but this should only make a minimal
difference to what is shown at the console and it only appears after having done configuration
changes with meteobridge that cause internal datalogger process to restart and to adapt
to current bucket tip counter of the station.

rain rate will go to zero when rainfall stops, but rain totals don't. please make sure that you
reference todays rain with template variable "rain0total-daysum" and not with act/min/max/etc.
As rain0total is a cumulative value, just the "sum" qualifiers deliver meaningful results. The
wiki also states that.

Hello.
I apologize if I missed something in the docs, I was not aware there is a template file available for Wunderground.
Is this something that is available?
I did look at the raw data sent to wunderground, and it appeared to use the wrong values..
Rain totals, for the most part are all 0.00, with a few exceptions, showing some result..

Here is some historical data from wunderground (hope it will help.. )
You can see the data show rainfall (HourlyPrecipin), yet the dailyrainin does not seem to contain the daily total.

You are right, that looks strange. As I cannot reconstruct the probleme here, could you please send your
Meteobridge MAC to "info(at)smartbedded.com", which will allow me to login to your Meteobridge.

Hello.
Email was sent.
Thanks for looking into this.

Problem was related to a bug that appears when not selecting January as annual rain season start.
Is fixed now. Any reboot after now will load bug-fixed code.
