Re: Need help adjusting crazy yearly rainfall totals
What is your settings for "Rain" year?
The sum of your Historic Monthly Rainfall shows 37.4 (rounded to 1 decimal)
Enjoy,
Paul

Re: Need help adjusting crazy yearly rainfall totals
Looking at your code in the Developers console it is using <!-- Cumulus WebTag XML Data file - version 1.8 --> and the data is being loaded from this XML item
Now I am afraid I am not familiar with how this XML file is loaded with data except the instructions in the Wiki says it is processed as an extra file by CumulusMX, presumably the base file is an XML formatted file containing the correct WebTags that pass the data to the XML file and uploads it.
However, the original 1.8 file is no longer available in the Wiki so I cannot see what WebTag field is being used to load "ryear".
It could be that the 1.8 file is out of date as far as WebTags are concerned and it is loading the wrong data.
Perhaps if you attached XML file you are using we could check that?
Code: Select all
<item name="ryear">
<value>37.49</value>
<unit>
<![CDATA[ ]]>
</unit>
<image/>
<class>dynamic</class>
<description>The total rainfall so far this year</description>
</item>

Re: Need help adjusting crazy yearly rainfall totals
So does the sum of rainfall since the start of May 2023 add up to 37.4 inches?
I've not heard of a rainfall season starting in May before - it defaults to January so it must be something you have set.
Where are you located?

Unfortunately, I can't help you further because I still use Cumulus 1. I don't know anything about higher versions.

Re: Need help adjusting crazy yearly rainfall totals
About the same thing in CU1 and CMX - "Rainfall season start" in CU1 and "Start of rainfall season" in CMX, just in a different Station setup menu tab.@De Hout wrote:
