I have the most recent version of weewx running on a Linux platform
reporting from an AcuRite 1036 weather station.
The problem I have is that weewx reports everything that the station
reports correctly with the exception of rain-totals and rate. Everything
is set to US units but while the display on the weather stations says that
we had .32 inches of rain last night, Weewx reports this as 8.14 inches of
rain. Doing the math it is pretty clear that someplace the .32 inches of
rain is being converted to mm and then reported as inches. I set up a
second skin that reports in metric and it shows that .0125 mm of rain fell
last night, so in this case it seems to be doing the opposite converting
.32 from mm to inches.
The standard report has the units set properly:
[[StandardReport]]
# See the customizing guide to change the units, plot types and line
# colors, modify the fonts, display additional sensor data, and
other
# customizations. Many of those changes can be made here by
overriding
# parameters, or by modifying templates within the skin itself.
# The StandardReport uses the 'Standard' skin, which contains the
# images, templates and plots for the report.
skin = Standard
[[[Units]]]
[[[[Groups]]]]
group_altitude = foot
group_speed2 = mile_per_hour2
group_pressure = inHg
group_rain = inch
group_rainrate = inch_per_hour
group_temperature = degree_F
group_degree_day = degree_F_day
group_speed = mile_per_hour
The rain rate is set to prefer hardware:
rainRate = prefer_hardware
and the units are set to US
# DO NOT MODIFY THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
target_unit = US # Options are 'US', 'METRICWX', or 'METRIC'
I'm sure there is a setting to fix this but I have read through the config
files and nothing jumps out as the logical solution.
Any ideas where I should start?
