Looking for help or advice. My Weather rack has been reporting a constant 26.1 for at least 4 days now. Even though we had two days of heavy rain.
I've checked the rack for obstructions, and manually poured somewater in as a test but nothing changes. The battery on the weather rack are fresh (changed the last week of Feb or so). I see this both in the raw MQTT feed and in the DB.
Signal strength etc are unchanged. This was working fine in months prior.
Is there anything else I can check?

Hmm. There may be something blocking the rain bucket inside the WR3. Last thing to try is hitting the reset button on the bottom of the WR3 and see if that clears it up.

Ok - Cumulative rain (from MQTT FT020T topic) now shows 0. We are expecting rain tomorrow so hopefully we will see data  I'll follow up after our rain event. Has anyone added an external 433mhz radio based stand-alone sensor to SkyWeather?

No luck. We got something in excess of 1/2 an inch of rain based on how wet the yard is but I am still seeing 0 for cumulative rain.
Any suggestions on a good stand-alone rain sensor? I cant afford to replace the whole weatherrack at this time.
