Hi all,
We currently poll the weatherlink API to get our data. For the most part it's been good, but I'm not understanding the precipitation.
When I am backfilling our database via manual browse-export feature, there are these parameter for rain:
Rain, Rain Rate.
But on the API, it's all totalized and reset at certain time length:
<rain_day_in>0.0000</rain_day_in>
<rain_month_in>0.0000</rain_month_in>
<rain_rate_day_high_in_per_hr>0.0000</rain_rate_day_high_in_per_hr>
<rain_rate_hour_high_in_per_hr>0.0000</rain_rate_hour_high_in_per_hr>
<rain_rate_in_per_hr>0.0000</rain_rate_in_per_hr>
<rain_rate_month_high_in_per_hr>0.0000</rain_rate_month_high_in_per_hr>
<rain_rate_year_high_in_per_hr>0.0000</rain_rate_year_high_in_per_hr>
<rain_storm_in>0.0000</rain_storm_in>
<rain_year_in>0.0000</rain_year_in>
So I am unable to reconcile the script that grabs the rain value using the API, and the rain value that I manually generate via export. Certainly, the one from export is more preferable because I can totalize it however we need. Is there a tag for basic "rain" that just reports for that 15 mins?
