See immediately preceding FAQ [[#My_station_invented_some_rain_that_didn.27t_really_occur.2C_and_I_want_to_set_it_to_zero_.28or_some_other_figure.29 |correcting rainfall]] for how to correct errors in total for particular days and how to correct the high extremes for the various periods.
 
In all cases, wait until Cumulus has written the next log entry (i.e. wait the number of minutes that you have set as the Cumulus logging interval), then restart Cumulus to get the monthly and annual totals recalculated from correct daily totals.
 
If you need to correct within day values for trend graphs as well as the longer period totals, provided you know roughly when the rogue rainfall was recorded, find (and edit) it in the [[monthly_log_files]], field 11 (assuming date is field 0) is the count used to derive other parameters. Increasing the value in the count field, decreases the difference to the next (or current) count, and therefore reduces the rain in the in-between period.
