rainRate is a calculated value: https://weewx.com/docs/5.0/reference/weewx-options/stdwxcalculate/
So first you correct all the rain values and may want to delete rainRate values from your database Second recalculate them: https://weewx.com/docs/5.0/utilities/weectl-database/#calculate-missing-derived-variables Third drop the daily summaries https://weewx.com/docs/5.0/utilities/weectl-database/#drop-the-daily-summaries Fourth rebuild the daily summaries https://weewx.com/docs/5.0/utilities/weectl-database/#rebuild-the-daily-summaries If your archive values are sane, your totals will be sane then. Consider only dropping/rebuilding the daily summaries for days with bad data, this will be faster and you won't lose the exact timestamps/value for min/max records on all the other days. See these switches in the docs: [[--date=YYYY-mm-dd] | [--from=YYYY-mm-dd] [--to=YYYY-mm-dd]] Kevin Crivelli schrieb am Dienstag, 14. Mai 2024 um 14:48:16 UTC+2: > I did everything here.
