fred,

please post the [Interceptor] section of your weewx configuration.

it looks like your station is always sending a junk value (-9999) for 
yearrainin.  yearrainin is the observation that the interceptor driver uses 
to determine the rainfall.  so when your station always reports -9999, the 
driver maps that to 'None', and voila! you have no rain reported.

i used yearrainin in order to minimize the effects of counter rollover, and 
because i was not seeing consistent use of rainin (is it rain since last 
sampling?  in a certain time period?  it seems to vary depending on the 
manufacturer and/or the firmware)

it looks like your rainin is a counter, but counting since when?  when does 
rainin reset?  and why is there no value for your yearrainin?

your station is also reporting absbaromin.  this value would be preferred 
to baromin, which i assume is a derivation of absbaromin with 
altitude/temperature compensation.  i'll have to see about making the 
driver prefer absbaromin if it exists.

btw, at some point the wu-based portions of the interceptor probably belong 
in a separate driver that simply captures data bound for wu, either by 
sniffing or by listening.  that driver *should* work with any 
manufacturer's hardware/firmware as long as they adhere to the wu protocol.
