hours/days', (and NOT the rain 'accumulat ED'). I found that clicking on the clock in the UI while using the 'Rain Accumulation' button, it states as you said, 'a forecast of what the rain accumulat ION will be for the next 12, 24, etc. QUITE an amazing number of detailed responses, so thanks.

Such can auto-log rainfall data into a file internally that you can then download and look at in graphical form using the software that comes with the weather station. So check your national weather service website for links to the logged data for your local area.īut your best bet is to simplify all this by buying a capable digital weather station for your farm (and claim it as a business expense for tax deduction purposes). But if you compare surrounding site totals you can tell how widespread or localized a rainfall event was and the implied average for your farm's area. Which page contains another link to all the data for the prior months and years at the same and/or surrounding area's logged sites:īut rainfall is highly variable and what falls in the met office's gauge may not show up on your fields. To access to them all I have to do is double-click on the radar's data icon at my radar site, and it gives the current logged data for the past three days in 30 minute blocks. I get it locally with daily totals for the past three days, but it contains a link to monthly, seasonal and annual logs also. That historical information will exist and you can probably access it with one mouse-click from your toolbar once you find a link to it. At best you could use your local met office's logged rainfall observation stats. You had the absolute best tools for understanding the past huge Florida hurricanes, and I used it data does not really exist. Take a look at the best (IMO) internet radio station, funded purely by donations at - So it CAN be done, and very profitably if you are good enough. Seems to me this project is no different. Everyone has to eat though, and you've got to be fed by someone.

Other than that, you guys have the best UI I've ever seen! It is simply amazing.

Even if that is not showing the past, it would be great to say what that accum. button seems to show some of the past and is showing. Now that the front just passed, the only choice is to see what the NEXT 12 hours are. But, accumulated rain or snow matters more than what the wind was, even an hour ago.

I don't know how to figure that out, if that data is even available, easily. We just had a huge front move through, and I had spread fertilizer out, and need to know if I should or should not add more water.

This is one huge requirement that only seems like 'history', and that is just trying to discover how much rain I got, even for the past few hours. Rain ACCUMULATION for at least the past DAY.
