Sorry, I hadn't realised WC v1.20 was a dev release - hopefully it will be production before too long.

I'm currently throwing stuff out of the dev plan left right and centre. I've been working on the 1.2 run for 6 weeks now and Mantis tells me I'm roughly 1/3 of the way through :( Gonna have to cut some stuff out...

    - Fixed the 0.5" rain gauge code introduced in version 2.3.1

  * Updated the realtime JSON files to include today's high UV value

Mark,

I see where you made the change in the rain rate gauge function in line 1559. I'm no expert, but it seems like the same change from 1 to 0.5 should also be made in the rain gauge function at line 1521 in order to change the scaling when more than 1/2 inch of rain (rather than 1 inch) has accumulated. In fact I've been just patching the gauges.js file using a value of 0.45 ever since our original discussion where you made the basic gauge scaling change to .5 as a starting point.

Let me know if I've got this wrong!

Rick

Version 2.4.3 is available, it fixes a missing units conversion for the maximum hourly rainfall today, a minor tweak to the UV level thresholds, and a change to the UV warning wording (English only).
