Rainrate to wunderground is wrong

Post by wetterfrosch1971 »

Hi,

on wunderground the hourly precipitation is displayed as the rain rate.
I assume the variable #rhour instead of #rrate is transferred to wunderground.
Can I change or set this somewhere?

Many thanks for help.

You cannot change it; it is hard coded to send the current rain rate.

however, the current rain rate is not sent.
the hourly amount of rain is sent to wu as the rain rate.

Can you post the URL string sent to wu, and what the rain rate was showing in CMX at that time.

Doh! Sorry, I just saw that this is for Cumulus 1!

Sorry, I can't help you with that.
