There is no master list of all the database variables. However, there are some comments about rain in the section *Porting to new hardware* <http://www.weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#porting> of the Customizing Guide. In particular, the field 'rain' should be the amount of rain that fell *during the period*. That is, if it's LOOP packets, it's the amount of rain that fell since the last LOOP packet, *not*, for example, the amount of rain for the day.
I suspect your field rain_mm is the amount of rain that has fallen since midnight. As explained in the porting guide, you'll have to take deltas of that field to get the field rain. So, to answer your questions: rain_mm => If this is rain since midnight, it should be mapped to dayRain, which is not in the standard database schema, but is used by some uploaders. temperature_C => outTemp. Correct. humidity => outHumidity. Correct. wind_avg_km_h => There is no field for averages. It's calculated by WeeWX when needed. wind_max_km_h => Field windGust wind_dir_deg => Field windDir Please read the porting guide. Make sure your driver emits packets using a consistent unit system. The unit system used by the database doesn't matter. Incoming data will be converted automatically. -tk On Tue, Jan 12, 2021 at 2:11 PM [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > > Also, a second question: > > My station is reporting "0.6" in "rain_mm" field.
