We’ve got a huge winter storm coming in here tonight. Would be nice to see what this WeatherCat software can do with all of my automation routines that a storm like this will be activating.
Any chance of a downloadable beta today? (Sunday)

It needs to run for a bit to make sure there’s nothing silly going on, but we do hope the code we froze today (version 0.8 build 45) is what will be posted sometime over the next few days.
Disappointed that I won’t be able to test drive this with a major winter storm. Our forecast for next week is back to a dry pattern, so I won’t really be able to test all my automation stuff.
Still, LWC continues to screw up my rainfall totals. We had a 2.09 inch total yesterday and LWC was displaying this properly until after midnight. This morning LWC is showing that total in “rainfall total yesterday” tag as 2.07 inches, but the actual monthly total did not change. This is the problem I was referring to earlier. There is no easy way to correct this problem since if I add back in the lost 0.02 to my totals, it will add them to the monthly total which will make it 0.02 over the actual total.
I’m hoping that your new software will be free of whatever bug is causing this very annoying problem.
