(following up for others who might help) Stefanos told me via email that his rain sensor reports a rain_total value that continually increments, so what he's looking to do is reflect whatever the sensor detected during a power outage and have an accurate total rain for the day.
The example he gave was: - assume the total_rain counter started at 0 mm - day-one 20mm of rain falls. The sensor reports total rain = 20mm - day-two 5mm of rain falls but there was a power outage while the rain was falling - when the power goes back on SDR reads the sensor's new reading which correctly shows 25mm accumulated in total over all days - so what he's looking for (I think) is how to set weewx up so day-two's rain shows 5mm (new total of 25 - old total of 20) Hope this helps.
