Rain sensor data (RTL-433 Acurite Atlas)

@dukeneukam wrote:

I have an Acurite Atlas weather station connected to home assistant using RTL_433 outputting to MQTT. I have configured the sensors in Home Assistant and they are working, but I’m not sure how to deal with the data from the rain sensor. The sensor data arrives as a cumulative measurement that reads in 0.01 inch increments. It will increment until it reaches 5.11" and then rolls back to 0". I need a way to turn the 0-5.11" measurement into useful statistics, such as rainfall per hour, day, week, month, year. I saw another topic suggesting using utility_meter, but I don’t know how to deal with the data rolling back to 0.

Any help would be appreciated.
