What we need to see is the archive database. Using sqlite3, something like *sqlite3 /home/weewx/archive/weewx.sdb* # Adjust as necessary sqlite> *select dateTime, datetime(dateTime,'unixepoch','localtime'), outTemp, outHumidity, windSpeed, radiation, ET from archive where dateTime>1537675200 limit 200;*
Also, were you using software or hardware record generation during that time period? -tk On Mon, Sep 24, 2018 at 7:13 AM DerekV <[email protected]> wrote: > Here's some lines from archive_day_et with hardware and then after > software was enabled: > > ET = prefer_hardware > > 1537675200|0.0|1537740900|0.0|1537740900|0.0|9|0.0|9 > 1537761600|0.0|1537788900|0.006|1537794000|0.006|25|0.006|25 > > ET = software > > 1537675200|0.0|1537740900|0.0|1537740900|0.0|9|0.0|9 > > 1537761600|0.0|1537788900|0.24413249419622|1537797900|0.485293107016707|29|0.485293107016707|29 > > > skin.conf > > [[[dayet]]] > > [[[[ET]]]] > aggregate_type = avg > aggregate_interval = 600 > plot_type = line > color = red > yscale = none,none,none > line_gap_fraction = .1 > > and the resulting plot: > > [image: dayet_software.png] > > > On Friday, September 21, 2018 at 7:45:59 PM UTC-4, Thomas Keffer wrote: >> >> Higher?
