The IP100 resets the day’s rain total at midnight (according to it’s clock). It doesn’t really matter to the driver when that happens. The driver is simply looking for a positive increment in day_rain_total. On a negative increment (e.g., reset), the driver just saves the last value and reports 0.0 for rain.
