Why do you assume the console is correct? This is an edge case where bugs continuing to exist is likely. If daily rain is midnight to midnight, as is the US custom, then daily rain on March 10 will be for 23 hours. I suspect the difference is between [0000 3/11] - [0000 3/10] and [0000 3/11] - [24 hours earlier] I think the first expression is correct. I would look at the hourly rain values and add them up and figure out which is right. Did you have 0.21" from 2300 on the 9th to 0000 on the 10th? I had 0.10" during that hour (also in MA, but rain is spatially quite variabl). If so, that explains it. If not, more investigation is warranted :-) Greg -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
