* Cumulus tracks the highs and lows in weather observations by comparing read values against those it has stored in [[Today.ini]], updating that file as required.
*{{Version badge 1}}The original Cumulus software reads the contents of '''dayfile.txt''' for many of the display and edit menu options that can be selected from the main Cumulus 1 screen.
**As the file is read each time you select to display a period, or update for a new period, you will see the results of any edit of dayfile.txt, whether with in-built editor or an external editor.
*Both Cumulus 1 and MX have ways to edit '''dayfile.txt''' while Cumulus is running. Please see [[Correcting Extremes]] page for more information. Cumulus 2 does not even allow you to view this log file.
