Maybe, maybe not. Any data you are recording now (or will record until changeover to the modified service) is merely in the wrong units and is easily fixed with a little SQL - snow_depth = snow_depth / 25.4. You could let it keep running as is, that way you continue to record data. Modify your service as required at your leisure and when you are able to implement your changes stop weeWX, put the new service in place, run a couple of SQL update queries on your snow db to (1) change usUnits to US and (2) convert all you snow measurements from mm to inches then start weeWx with your modified service. You can easily fine tune/practise the SQL on a copy of your db and you should be able to test your service as well before the big bang. Of course if you have no snow data then maybe it is easiest to just start afresh. Gary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
