[weewx-user] Re: fileparse problems

Thanks In the JSON stuff the "RainHourly" stuff is rain in the last hour - I call it rainRate because that's the field name in index.html.tmpl. Is there a corresponding field name for "rain since midnight?" The double conversion is not all that hard looks easier than the alternative. I

Re: [weewx-user] Re: fileparse problems
