My acurite sensor is reporting correct lightning data. In the loop data I see 
'lightning_distance': 7, 'lightning_strike_count': 296, but on the web page it 
is saying that strikes are 9768 and the hourly total of approx. 280000+. How do 
I get it to where it shows that current data instead of erroneous values?

 

 



 

I would except to see strikes by at 7

 

Also how do I get a graft to see the distance? I am running the default seasons 
4.8.0 skin

 

Thanks

Dave

"Is not correct" isn't much to go on. What are you expecting to see ?

 

See https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/faq-how-to-report-a-problem

 

I don't know about your station in particular, but WeatherFlow stations 
frequently can show thousands of bogus lightning strikes due to the inexpensive 
sensor that vendor uses.  Fix there is to rotate the sensor 90 degrees which 
amazingly does work in quieting down erroneous strike readings.  Acurite has a 
web page on your station at

 if that helps any.
