The total strikes I'm showing in my database don't match what's coming from
the sensor.
This is the relevant entry in [sdr] [[sensor_map]]
lightningStrikesTotal = strikes_total.6FAF.AcuriteLightningPacket
Here's what I've got in the database, and I have no idea why the total
isn't always a whole number:

Between the last two of the entries I stopped weewx and ran the sdr driver
alone piped to "grep lightning". This is what I got.

Sometimes the parsed output contains the data from a different sensor, but
I doubt that affects the lightning total. Those LaCross sensors are not
mine.
Strikes ls always a whole number here, but not in my database.
Earlier I stopped weewx and ran
rtl_433 -R 39 -F json | grep lightning
and got this:

I have to squeeze my monkeying around between archive intervals, because I
have to stop weewx to access the rtl.
As I'm writing this, I'm starting to think that the total in the database
is the average of the sensor reading over the interval. I don't think it
should be. I think it should be the last value. But maybe that's a
philosophical question. If that's the case, it should settle down once
there's no more lightning in an interval.
