Weather Adapting on/off by Zone

I have a zone with drip irrigation that is under a gutter overhang. When it rains, this area does not get much water, like the lawn would get, but with the program set to weather adaptive, it will not get what it needs. I would like to see the ability to turn weather adaptability on/off for a zone within a program. As it is, I created a new program just for that zone to run later in the day with adaptability off, but I may wind up using more water than necessary this way.

  Doesn't solve the problem ?

  Unless I'm misunderstanding, the water adaptive feature is set by program, not zone. So no, I don't think this solves my issue.

  No, the program Weather-Adaptive Watering is just a switch nicely named that force the entire program not to use any zone weather data in its watering times calculations.
  But if you enable this program option and you'll go and disable the zone weather data (Live Weather and Seasonal Adjustments) then this zone or zones will still water 100% no matter how you set your program.
