It's a Lacrosse WS-2316 and like most stations takes observations using the metric system. A conversion is done somewhere, I believe it's in WeeWx but it could be the Lacrosse software. Either way, the problem isn't where the data is converted, the conversion itself is correct. It's the calculations with the converted data that is causing a minor issue. Using the $month.rain.sum tag causes the 16 significant digit sum to round up. So a monthly sum of 0.3251968503937174 inches is shown as 0.33 inches instead of 0.32 inches. This is pretty trivial overall.
