Some observations on the VWS daily files and the Rain columns: Tot Rain is a running total. It resets to 0.0 on the first archive record recorded on January 1st unless it was raining during this period. If it was raining, the first achive record on January 1st is the difference between the previous archive and new archive that is being written for the 1st of the year.
DailyRain is a running total. It resets to 0.0 on the first archive record recorded on the new day (whatever the first archive record after midnight) unless it was raining during this period. If it was raining, the value recorded is the difference between the last archive record of the previous day and the new archive record for the new day. Hope this makes sense. I saw a comment in your code and so I looked at the records from last day of the year, and the start of the new year (same with the daily files) I didn't see anywhere in VWS where you could designate what day to start the "rain year".
