On the app and on the webside https://tempestwx.com/station/[=stationid]/grid you see when it is raining light or very light in the rain per hour only one decimale behind the data. So sometimes it looks like there is no change in rain per hour. Not as like when set in inches two decimale after the data. It would be great if it was possible to also see when set in mm, rain per hour 2 decimale behind the data.
Just like i can see that on https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/[=stationid]
The number of decimals displayed usually depends on accuracy and resolution of the measuring device. I think that typical tripping buckets have a resolution of 0.1-0.25 mm. Displaying more than one decimal is deceptive with respect to accuracy and resolution at least.
