Well, then I suggesat you file a bug with Davis that the console should be set to and logging everything in UTC, and only displaying in local time, and could they please issue a firmware update! But seriously, keeping logs/databases in local time is a mess. -- You received this message because y

The rain which fell during the missing 2 to 3 o’clock hour seems not to have been captured by the WeeWX database. If the console is not correct then nothing down stream of it can be correct either, so no need to be concerned with that. . The discrepancy between the console and database is .21”,

Checked the database and I add up 0.52" present. The same as output by $day.rain.sum I just recently converted to a new skin, Ken True's Saratoga weewx template. On checking the logs if find that at 3am (no 2am) errors are spit out by cheetah. I now suspect the origin for this behavior resides

Let's see what's in the database. I don't know what kind of install you did, but for a package install do this (you type *bold* text): *sqlite3 /var/lib/weewx/weewx.sdb* for a pip install *sqlite3 ~/weewx-data/archive/weewx.sdb* then see how much rain is in the archive records: sqlite> *sele
