G'day Steve, I know we had this chat a loooong time ago, but I wanted to know something that just occured to me. The formula that Cumulus uses to work out the rain rate for Fine Offset models, will the modification (assuming correct) of the rain gauge to 0.1mm tips (calibration of 0.3333333) lower the figure for rain rate?
It won't make any difference, because the amount of rain recorded for any given period should be exactly the same, assuming the correct calibration figure is entered for the modified size of rain collector, and assuming there isn't a bug in the code.

Shall I put in a request re:new rain rate calculations for Fine Offset? (you had mentioned you had worked out how to do this).
I wrote the code a long time ago, and it worked. But there were some situations at start up when the calculation gave silly results, so I had to take it out again. At some point I'll look at it again.
