Hello again,

In Spain we have a network of meteorological stations, his name is Meteoclimatic http://www.meteoclimatic.com/ to this network can send the data from our stations through some tags.

Softwvare such as Virtual Weather Station, Weatherlink, Weather Display, FreeWX and Meteohub allow us to send all the required tags.

We have noted that the software Cumulus missing tags to use on the network Meteoclimatic.

It would be possible to add tags to the maximum and minimum values of the current month and year of each of the main parameters (temperature, humidity, pressure, maximum gust of wind, etc. ...??

Excuse my poor English again, I hope you can understand me.

Thank you very much
Vicente

The problem is that you're not just asking for the tags, you're asking for Cumulus to start keeping track of all those maxima and minima, which it doesn't currently do. It generates (some of) them when you do 'This Month' and 'This Year' but doesn't store them anywhere. So it would be a large amount of work to start tracking them and saving them somewhere.

I think that the best I can offer is to do this in Cumulus 2.

There are numerous ways to get this by parsing dayfile.txt

Takes some time but its doable.

Yes, that did occur to me, too. All the data is available without the use of tags for anyone to write a bit of script or whatever.
