I should add, I wasn’t keen to trigger it either. Knowing the observation name and that it goes from 0 to non-0 is all I really need to know. I plan to configure my weewx-pushover extension to send a notification when it is non-0. When I have it all configured, I will trigger as a final test. Thanks again. rich
