Hi all I wonder if somebody could help explain rain recording for me. I use a weather station that emulates the Davis protocol without logger.
Yesterday we had the first rain for the year. This showed up correctly in the dayRain and the rainRate of the MQTT data that Pat uses for the live part of the Belchertown skin. But - it did not appear to show in the daily rain field or the monthly rain field or the NOAA report I grabbed a Loop packet from running weewxd and got this LOOP: 2019-01-07 17:32:15 NZDT (1546835535) appTemp: 23.7290876761, barometer: 1015.40848942, cloudbase: 663.108926947, consBatteryVoltage: 11.16, dateTime: 1546835535, dayET: 0.0, dayRain: 0.0690000000172, dewpoint: 16.3395209055, extraAlarm1: 0, extraAlarm2: 0, extraAlarm3: 0, extraAlarm4: 0, extraAlarm5: 0, extraAlarm6: 0, extraAlarm7: 0, extraAlarm8: 0, extraHumid7: 58.0, extraTemp1: 0.0, extraTemp2: 0.0, extraTemp3: 0.0, extraTemp4: 0.0, extraTemp5: 0.0, extraTemp6: 0.0, extraTemp7: 24.4444444444, forecastIcon: 0, forecastRule: 0, heatindex: 21.6111111111, humidex: 26.445811289, inDewpoint: 14.5043887024, inHumidity: 50.0, insideAlarm: 0, inTemp: 25.7222222222, leafTemp1: 0.0, leafTemp2: 0.0, leafTemp3: 0.0, leafTemp4: 0.0, leafWet1: 0.0, leafWet2: 0.0, leafWet3: 0.0, leafWet4: 0.0, maxSolarRad: 568.582912358, monthET: 0.0, monthRain: 0.0, outHumidity: 72.0, outsideAlarm1: 0, outsideAlarm2: 0, outTemp: 21.6111111111, radiation: 169.0, rain: 0.0, rainAlarm: 0, rainRate: 0.0, soilLeafAlarm1: 0, soilLeafAlarm2: 0, soilLeafAlarm3: 0, soilLeafAlarm4: 0, soilMoist1: 0.0, soilMoist2: 0.0, soilMoist3: 0.0, soilMoist4: 0.0, soilTemp1: 0.0, soilTemp2: 0.0, soilTemp3: 0.0, soilTemp4: 0.0, stormRain: 0.0, stormStart: 943873200, sunrise: 1546772400, sunset: 1546772400, trendIcon: -1, txBatteryStatus: 0, usUnits: 16, UV: 2.3, windchill: 21.6111111111, windDir: None, windGust: 1.60934800001, windGustDir: 215.0, windSpeed: 0.0, windSpeed10: 1.60934800001, yearET: 0.0, yearRain: 0.060000000015 So the dayRain shows the correct amount (in cm of rain) and the yearRain is close but rain and monthRain are empty. The rainRate has recorded ok though. I had a look at the archive db and the rain field is empty - which I guess makes sense. So I guess the question I have is - does the data in Loop packet above come from Weewx or the station and where should I start to look for why the data is missing?
