Have checked my weewx.sdb and ALL rain records have a lot of decimal places, not just the historical records but live records to As an example 0.2mm looks always to be 0.00787405.... 0.4mm = 0.015748031.... Is this expected ???? Temp -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
