by adding the lines highlight by gjr80 to the section under 'class

This is how I fixed the first part of the problem where the out data

I have my rain data showing up now.
As I was able to determine, my situation does require me to use the SDR
option instead of the Acurite 5N1 option when configuring my setup. As I
had mentioned, I added the correct line to the SDR.py file which resulted
in the rain data being parsed
I suspect the parsing problem is caused by update to RTL_433 in August

rain_mm whereas you appear to have rain_in. You could try adding the
following two highlighted lines to /usr/share/weewx/user/sdr.py:
