That was indeed it. I added yet another tweak to the user/extensions.py
here.
weewx.accum.extract_dict['hail'] = weewx.accum.Accum.sum_extract
weewx.accum.extract_dict['hailRate'] = weewx.accum.Accum.sum_extract

Hi Gary,
Thanks for your considered reply.
It does help, in that it gives some assurance that I'm not, altogether,
losing it. If it's not in there that's fine and that explains why I
couldn't find any references to it in the docs, or in the groups. I'll
appropriate both those columns for my gauge
Glenn,
To understand why things are like they are you need a bit of history. When Tom
first developed weeWX he used the wview schema, I suspect this is why hail and
hailRate are in the schema. It's not much point having a field in the schema if
you don't have the units to support it, hence you
A search of the /usr/share/weewx tree returns results for rain and
rainRate. The same search for hail and hailRate returns nothing.
I'm looking for the actions, formulas. How hail, hailRate is treated and
created.
