kit,

the acurite 5in1 hardware reports 0.01" of rain for each bucket tip.

the acurite driver puts all observations into the METRIC unit system, so it 
multiplies each tip by 0.0254 to get centimeters.

try running weewx directly - it should spit out a LOOP packet every 18 
seconds.  every other LOOP packet should report a value for rain_total and 
rain.  each REC should contain a field 'rain' with the amount of rain in 
that REC interval.  the LOOP and REC data will be in the unit system of 
your database (US by default).

with weewx running, tip the rain bucket once.  see what comes through in 
the next LOOP and compare that to what you see on the console.
