that looks to have fixed the issue setting humility I got the following water levels:
100% was 6%
10% was 47%
0% was 52%

thanks

Setting humidity to zero is giving the same result as setting it to 100. To ignore humidity I had to set it to one percent.

I would really like it to look at the forecast for the day: [pop] * [qpf_allday] * [some factor]

forecast/

“simpleforecast”: {
“forecastday”: [
…
“period”:1,
…
“pop”:20,
“qpf_allday”: {
“in”: 0.02,
“mm”: 1
},
},

now at about 24 hours after the rain yesterday I get

Min Humidity 58%
Max Humidity 86%
Mean Temp 83.1F
Precip Yesterday 0.29″
Precip Today 0.02″
Adjustment Method Zimmerman
Current % Watering 32%
Last Weather Call Thr, 25 Jun 2015 16:44:04
Last Successful Thr, 25 Jun 2015 16:44:05

so it’s clear that the readings aren’t correct

I’ve noticed it can be raining and the weather algorithm and still have a % for watering – last night we got .3 inch of rain but was it was showing 66% water level an hour later – by the morning it was zero% – but I clearly don’t wish to water the yard while it’s raining

thanks – worked great
