Daily reset

You can choose either a 12 Midnight reset (default) or 9 a.m. reset (used in Australia, New Zealand ,and a number of other countries). The Norwegian Meteorological Institute uses 06:00 UTC to reset rain and 18:00 UTC for temperature and wind.

  • Under the Setup, click Values Reset Time.

At either 12 Midnight or 9 a.m., the daily high/low data will be reset, as well as, yesterday's rain total.


Fine tune reset times

You can also fine tune the reset times if you need to.

  1. Under Setup, click Display Units.
  2. Set Hour to reset daily high/low values (temperature, wind), Hour to reset daily rain (n.b. 24-hour clock - e.g. 1600 for 4 p.m.), and month to reset the yearly rain (to match your rain season).
