day reset does this...
 
Reset midnight rain
Entering Day Reset (message about current day of month, at this stage web tag <#metdate> changes to new date)
Day Reset (message about date ending, time shown as 00:00:00 because time not defined, not because it is midnight, it might be 9am or 10am)
Run EOD custom SQL
Save dayfile entry (uses what is still in today.ini that includes old date, i.e. what is now in web tag <#metdateyesterday>)
Write monthly & yearly file entries
Write any new daily extreme records
if day of month = 1 then: copy month.ini to saved file, reset monthly figures
if day of month = 1 and month = 1 then: copy year.ini to saved file, reset yearly figures
Copy todays high/lows to yesterdays
Reset todays high/lows to current
Write today.ini & yesterday.ini
Create NOAA reports
Execute user daily external program
Process Extra EOD files

= Operating a web site =
 
*If you want to operate the 'standard' web site, then just the same as with Cumulus 1, you will need to upload the contents of the '''webfiles''' folder from the zip file (don't upload the containing webfiles folder itself).
*Note that the MX web files are not the same as the ones for Cumulus 1, so make sure you upload the MX files if moving from Cumulus 1 to MX.
