the counter wraps around at 655 inches or it locks up and stops working and you have to buy a console or find a hack at 100 inches. not sure it will ever rain that much here. there is a chronic drought.

this means there are no nulls in archive records due to archive interval expiring faster than complete packets arriving. next question: should have in weewx.conf "record_generation = hardware" or "record_generation = software" ? On Saturday, February 5, 2022 at 11:43:21 PM UT

is is the right formula not T(atlas)+T(WH25) since it can read both packet sequences intertwined (as they come in at the same time). by the way weewx is a wonderful program. On Sunday, February 6, 2022 at 7:15:18 AM UTC-8 matthew wall wrote: > On Sunday, February 6, 2022 at 9:26:38 AM UTC-5
