Raining Pretty Hard Yet 0 in/hr Precip Rate on Dashboard
« on: June 03, 2019, 10:52:08 AM »
I've had .45" of rain in the past hour which is supposed to be displayed as the Precip Rate according to WU's PWS upload specification.  It shows as 0 in/hr on the dashboard although the graph lower down is correct.  Another victim of inappropriate rounding.  Whoever does the programming for WU appears to know very little about meteorology and can't even understand their own data specifications.

That particular issue has been known for quite a while, search these forums for additional comments. That value currently updates in .5 inch increments. .45 will show as 0.  Your graph should show correctly.
