Rainfall data loss?

Post by Steve Willington »

Hi,

I upgraded to Cumulus 1.92 a week or so back. Today I have noticed a discrepancy in the rainfall accumulations. It looks as if Cumulus reset the rainfall counter twice during the last 24 hours - once at midnight and then again at 09Z this morning. Cumulus reads a monthly total of 54.6mm vs the correct reading of 69.4, with today's total only reading 3.4mm vs 19.4mm (hence the discrepancy), the reset at 09Z accounting for the loss. Any ideas as to what happened and how to fix it (just change the day.ini file)?

I think Steve will need a zip of your diags folder to look at this problem.
