I agree Andrew, I guess we could call this a work in progress by the
developer :)
One other question on rain - my bucket tip has calculated out to 0.230 mm
per tip. To allow for that I have added the following into weewx.conf. Are
they all required? Is the correction factor for the rain rate correct or
required at all? I noticed with a single tip the rainfall recorded correct
at 0.23mm but the rainRate was 0.2mm per hour, so added the conversion below
rain = rain * 1.15
dayRain = dayRain * 1.15
monthRain = monthRain * 1.15
yearRain = yearRain * 1.15
rainRate = rainRate * 1.15
