Hmm. I would say you have a very electrically noisy rain buck interrupt line. Try rebooting the system and see if it happens again. Then if it does, you should try putting a stronger pullup on the rain bucket line (see the WeatherPlus specification for the pin number). Say about a 1KOhm resistor.

What would cause nothing to show/record from the rain bucket?
It has rained here most of the night and throughout the day and it show 0 mm.

Sounds like something is disconnected. Can you tilt the bucket by hand and hear if it clicks?
Also you should see an LED flash on the OurWeatherBoard.

I poured a glass of water into the bucket and it recorded nothing I will check the connections, listen for the click.

One time we had wasps build a nest inside the rain bucket, which pretty well took care of the rain bucket (we sprayed and cleaned it out and then we were fine).

I gave it some moving and it appears to click, but not exactly sure if it is a click or the plastic flexing. The board is long way away so I never saw if the board lit up. I did recheck Wunderground and it showed 0.3 mm of rain, so it may be working. Suppose to get some rain today and I'll keep my eye on it.
