I don't think its based on daily rain. Why? Because it's a very simple station and i'm pretty sure it doesn't have internal clock. I don't have any way to set the clock in station....so how would it calculate midnight?!
This is my 'station': Spare part for weather station (Transmitter / thermo hygro sensor) 433Mhz, with solar panel|Temperature Instruments| - AliExpress <https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32872784585.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dhJeTs7> I have a rain bucket attached to it. To get data, I'm using rtl_433 to 'capture' the wireless data, generate a JSON and send to my MQTT server. In Weewx, i'm using WeeWX-MQTTSubscribe to get the data from MQTT server. Everything is working fine now, except for the rain, which still twice the reported value.
