Re: [weewx-user] Re: Why the rain 'spikes'?

Interesting, I hadn't noticed that, and I see the same pattern on the other days you have posted. I suspect what is happening is that if the data buffer is full, the final data item is continually over written with that days accumulated rain which the WS6.in1 driver then assumes is a normal

Sorry I'm picking this thread up a bit late. Looking at the output of the SQL commands I'm seeing unexpected behaviour (apart from the rain spikes). The Bresser weather station has a buffer that with the 15 minute interval you are using should allow up to 150 days of data to be recovered. But
