hmm is that the right way round? At 0.01 inch per tip... 999/3600*100/25.4 = 1.09

Not that it matters a jot, just watching the Manchester 10K and got time on my hands!

It's 0.04 in/tip = 1.016 mm/tip. So 999 mm/hr = 983 tips/hr = 0.27 tips/sec = 1 tip every 3.7 seconds. But it doesn't need to be sustained; in theory any 2 tips less than 3.7 seconds apart will presumably trigger the overflow value. Except that these stations seem to have some sort of randomising factor built in to their rainfall reporting...

What's the easiest way to edit out the incorrect data?

Yesterday I knocked the rain gauge over whilst cutting the grass, and got the HHH on the console.

I've edited out the 3.3mm of rain, but I can't seen to get rid of the high rain rate, as every time I started up Cumulas again it redownloaded the erronus data.

As the day has now rolled over will it be easier now to edit out the high rain rate, and where is the log for days since last rain, as this is also incorrect now, and I'm having a job trying to find that. Is it just the times tamp for last tip?

Yes, assuming it's just the high for yesterday that you mean; use the dayfile.txt editor on the edit menu. You can also edit the high rain rate figure displayed for yesterday (in yesterday.ini), but that isn't permanent so would disappear tomorrow anyway.

It's in today.ini

Thanks Steve,

All changed now.
Still says 0 days since last rain, but I guess it's not uploaded that to website yet.

But all looks good now.
Thanks for the speedy reply.

And I'll have to be more careful next time cutting the grass.

Quick update, forced a we update and the days since last rain is now correct as well.
Thank you so much.
