There is one major problem and very good reason why I always want to use Rain as sum.
Think about what happens when your station is offline for a short while. Temperature - not a big deal Humidity - not a big deal ... just small gaps Rain - major issue because the totals are not going to add up. With the other parameters we use averages, so it doesnt matter so much, but wih rain it has to be cumulative value so that even when there is a gap, it will still calculate the overall total correctly.
