Tom, 

Initially I wanted to do exactly what you are proposing with the rain 
measurements - until I realized that if weewx / my server goes offline for 
a few days I will miss a chunk of incremental readings once I restart.  So 
it seemed a better route to read the last archived record and from there 
calculate the incremental value.

I am missing something?
