Re: [weewx-user] Re: Rain Underreading: Discrepancies even when importing from csv

Wed, 01 Nov 2023 01:27:13 -0700 

I think you have to understand better how weewx works:
even if you set a archive interval of 300 seconds (5 minutes), each data packet sent by your console every 16 seconds (shorter doesn't make sense for you anyway as the outdoor sensor array only transmits every 16 seconds) is processed by weewx and added to its Loop data according to the accumulator setup. The "loop" is a table in which all data which occur during an archive interval are collected [summarized, averaged etc.] and the last version is then archived at the end of the archiving interval. So nothing gets lost and you don't need to archive every 16 seconds ... 

You can find a proper interceptor.py and extensions.py at
https://pc-wetterstation.de/weewx/usr/share/weewx/user/interceptor.zip
and
https://pc-wetterstation.de/weewx/usr/share/weewx/user/extensions.zip

Hi Rainer
Thank you for the reply.

You are right, that is an absurd interval (Im not sure if late nights 
or desperate times caused it).
My console reports (well, POST's) every 16s (the minimum setting). I 
am going to increase my archive interval to 60s, or perhaps 32s. Not 
sure if it should be divisible by my console's abilities.



As for the driver, thanks. Didn't know Interceptor was so outdated. 
Unfortunately, I am not sure what else my froggit/fineOffset WH3000 
can use. I couldn't get the standard ones to work.


Appreciated.

    a) you should use an interceptor driver version which cleanly
    handles all your sensors - and also those you don't have
    the original version on GitHub was never extended and is a
    crippled version from a today's point of view as it covers the
    basic sensors only and its exclusion field-map is incomplete -
    doesn't match the current customized server protocol sent by a
    modern Ecowitt console with more than the basic sensors connected
    - extended, complete and working versions of interceptor.py and
    extensions.py (for units) exist though
    if you use the device_type ecowitt-client as you already found out
    yourself, the assignment of the rain data should work properly
    But that's "beauty talk"

    b) what hits my eye is your archiving interval of 15 seconds ...

    I have no idea what added value you try to get from such a short
    interval and it may overload the system and be - at least
    partially - responsible for your issue.

    A few types of rain params there.

        Hey there Gary
        Your response, and the time you spent, is most appreciated.
        Thank you.

        To simplify things, let's ignore the "import" problem, that
        may (probably is) just user error and config. PS: for what
        it's worth, my rain data in the csv's are cumulative. So
        every hour, adds up the total until midnight where it becomes
        0.0 again.

        You're triggering some ideas here, regarding timing. I will
        share my startup log head now.
        When I know the rain data matches the other sites, ecowitt,
        WU, Weathercloud... I will disable posting to those services
        and just use weewx. Even simpler.

        Under-readding seems to be at a daily level (or event, which
        is what I can humanly notice when I look at the console, WU,
        ecowitt and weewx). An event would end, and everything would
        say, eg: 32.5mm, but weewx would be at 26mm. Even during
        rain, it would be behind the console and other services.

        I'm REALLY pondering the timing thing, and I think you're on
        to something about missing intercepts/timing.

        Unfortunately, I am very much in the dark about how these
        timings work. I use WSView to configure my FineOffset WH
        clone, and the minimum rate is every 16s (which is my setting).
        With what interval and "loop packets" mean, I can't figure it
        out.

        Again, thanks for the reply.

            It can be tricky to maintain identical readings at all
            destinations for stations that post to multiple sources,
            ran in particular can be tricky due to it being a
            (typically) cumulative value whereas other observations
            are typically averages. Small changes or the loss of a
            single reading usually have little effect of weather obs
            average values but loss of a mm or two of rain is
            noticeable. Timing differences can also cause discrepancies.

            You say that 'it underreads rain by a few millimeters
            everytime' - what does that mean, is every packet
            received by WeeWX under or is every day, week or month
            under? How often is your station posting to ecowitt.net
            <http://ecowitt.net> and WeeWX? It would be good to see a
            startup log extract with debug = 1 so we can see your
            station config. If using your station custom
            posting/upload you should be seeing regular intercepts
            from your station in the WeeWX log, are you seeing all
            posts from your station or are some missing, do all have
            a rain value or are some missing? Sorry but there is
            likely going to be a lot of log analysis to track this down.

            In terms of wee_import what does your csv file contain,
            does it contain cumulative rain value or per-archive
            period values? What does you import config file contain?
            There is a 'rain' config option in the CSV import config
            file <http://weewx.com/docs/4.10/utilities.htm#csv_rain>
            that determines how rain values are handled - it needs to
            be set correctly. if the source data is correct tracking
            down CSV import issues should be very straightforward
            once we have the data and the config being used. Feel
            free to post your CSV source data and import config file
            here or email to me at gjroderick at gmail dot com and I
            will run through them.

                I then imported it all back in. The data from ecowitt

                824.1mm as per my station
                https://www.ecowitt.net/home/index?id=68712

                After all of this, I still get about half the

                https://weewx.simple-earth.org/reports/?yr=2023

                It's likely there is a weird field mapping, or table
                that I just don't understand. Looking at the amount
                of rain related issues, I'm not alone. Would like to
                beat this.
                Please help me save my brain. It's breaking.

                        Hello
                        I recently started using weewx to collect my
                        own weather data (instead of relying on
                        external sites). The problem is strange. I
                        tried for days, exhaustively, to fix this -
                        wanted to avoid another support issue here
                        that wastes your time, but alas.

                        My station is a froggit WH3000 and has always
                        (still does), accurately posted to ecowitt,
                        WU and WeatherCloud.

                        I added weewx on my vps now, and it uses
                        interceptor to get the data using my stations
                        'custom' posting (it has a choice of ecowitt
                        vs wu protocol).

                        The data on weewx is all fine, accurate,
                        except it underreads rain by a few
                        millimeters everytime. All the data on the
                        station console, WU and ecowitt matches, but
                        weewx underreads.

                        For october for instance: 28.4mm is the
                        correct value. Weewx has 23.7mm
                        I can see it happen on daily rainfall as
                        well. Yesterday we had 0.2mm drizzle, but
                        weewx still thinks we had 0.0

                        On a sidenote, I tried to import historic
                        data from ecowitt (csv) to weewx, and I see
                        the same thing happening.

                        I feel bested. It got the better of me.
                        Advice or ideas could go a long way.
                        Thanks in advance
                        Marlon
