*Don't try to edit 'yesterday.ini' within a few minutes before or after Cumulus performs a rollover (either at rollover time or on restarting if it was not running at rollover time).
=== Editing today.ini within Cumulus ===
You may wish to [[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 | edit the rain data]] if there has been a quirk in your weather station reporting during the day and the figure is abnormally inflated (or indeed under-reported). The stored rainfall today ''count'' value in today.ini may be edited within Cumulus via ''Today's rain'' screen on the '''Edit''' menu. This edit does not affect any false derived rainfall values for the month or year, unless you subsequently close and restart Cumulus the same day to force recalculation of the longer period totals.
=== Editing today.ini or yesterday.ini outside Cumulus ===
If the rogue value is not rainfall, then you might need to edit today.ini or yesterday.ini using an external editor. '''Note:''' If you do edit either of these files, you must close Cumulus down first!
