Thanks, I managed to reproduce the problem. You are falling foul of your spike removal settings; spike logging is switched off in your config so there is no indication that it is happening.
I'm investigating why it sometimes hits the spike limit with these settings - most of the time it starts OK, I've only had one failure so far...

Wow
That is interesting as it must relate to something new in b3257 as I haven't changed those settings since the earliest days of Cumulus.
Thanks for the continued excellent work of you and your team.

I had made changes to the wind handling to streamline it a bit. This consequence with your combination of settings and spike limits hadn't been picked up in testing.

Re: Build 3257 wind speeds, rain fall & who knows what else?
I've been problem solving some wind issues I'm having (at my age wind often seems to be an issue ) and noticed I had "round wind speeds" selected, which explains why mine are whole numbers (units are km/h). But I also see in the diag file that my WLL broadcast is returning integer values (always shown with a redundant ".00" appended). Deselecting the "round" option doesn't change the WLL broadcast decimals - as expected as I presume the WLL broadcast knows nothing about cmx settings - and cmx is still showing integer values.
Can you confirm the WLL gets its wind data from the VP2 and that is the limiting factor for decimal places?

Re: Build 3257 wind speeds, rain fall & who knows what else?
Settings via the admin interface weren't saved so I stopped cmx and changed Cumulus.ini lines
WindSpeedDecimals=1
WindSpeedAvgDecimals=1
and all seems to be ok now
WindSpeedDecimals=1
WindSpeedAvgDecimals=1
and all seems to be ok now
