Reports are entirely generated from the database, which contains archive records. Where do the archive records come from? If you have selected hardware record generation (the default) then, in the case of the Vantage, they are downloaded from the console. The value of rain rate you are seeing is what was downloaded from the console.
For more information, see the section *LOOP packets vs archive records <http://weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#_________LOOP_packets_vs._archive_records_______>* in the Customizing Guide, and the section on Vantage stations <http://weewx.com/docs/hardware.htm#vantage_data62> in the Hardware Guide. As for the other stations, who knows where they are getting their values... -tk On Fri, Jan 4, 2019 at 1:49 AM Adam Harvey <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, I have a raspberry pi with weewx installed.
