'''View''', ''Highs and Lows - This month (or This year)'' (or ''thismonth.htm'' or ''thisyear.htm'' web page) only shows the lowest and highest values for the current calendar month (or current year). This answer describes a way to see the same information for the month (or year) that fairly recently ended. | |||
From version 1.9.3, Cumulus creates a daily backup of the log files. Look in the ''backup\daily'' subfolder within your cumulus installation. These daily backups will be created if cumulus was left running during the period of interest, or stopped before that period and since restarted. Normally about 10 such back ups are available, each folder has a name based on the timestamp and contains the 6 [[:Category:Log_Files|xxxx.ini files]], the current [[Monthly_log_files]], and the [[dayfile.txt|daily summary]]. | |||
Open as a text file [[month.ini]] in the folder whose name is bearing the timestamp after your final rollover, the final lowest and highest for each observation in the month will be listed. In a similar manner if you miss the last day of the year, see the final 'this year' figures for last year by opening [[year.ini]] from the appropriate backup. | |||
