No rain data

We got a ton of rain this week, including a full inch of rain today, but my dashboard showing 0 precipitation and when I go into "show all data" there's just "no data".

I'm on v 4.0.900 and I have NOAA set.  The temps appear to be accurate, so it's just the rain that is missing.  Any suggestions?

  Hi Jim,

   

  In what location (city/state) does this happens ? Also could you send me a screenshot from Web UI Weather > Weather Services Comparison with Starting Date selected on 20 May for 30 days on the Rain (QPF) tab ?

  Indeed, I see no precipitation forecast returned with NOAA API, I'm not sure why, NOAA was providing forecast for Canada just fine, although latelly we did observe some missing precipitation data in Canada.

  Could you setup another Weather Service like Forecast.io  : https://support.rainmachine.com/hc/en-us/articles/227950767 and let me know how it works ?

  I set up Forecast.io and now I'm getting precipitation!  Thanks for the help!

  I don't see it updating history, so I have 0 mm for yesterday, where it should be something like 30 mm.  I should assume that's normal?

  Neither Forecast.io or NOAA provide historical information. Only WUnderground if you select a custom personal weather station nearby it will report "yesterday" measured data.
