Yesterday my Tempest recorded 2 periods of rain ranging from very light to moderate. That seemed to match what I saw. The total was 0.04”. Not much rain but it still counts and was recorded. This morning I do not see any rain record from yesterday. I would expect any recorded info to be retained. …

if you live in the USA, there is something named raincheck running in the hours after midnight. It tries to correct the total amount of rain recorded. So next morning the value might change.

Ok. Thanks. I just turned rain check off

Hey buddy, do you know how we can or will get updates on tempest? I was told that they intend to turn on the Ai full throttle real soon if not already and I don’t know what that means when that happens. If you have any input please let me know.

I have no nformation about this. Sorry
