-All these can be set in the NOAA Setup Screen in Configuration menu.  You might select to close Cumulus, and edit the 'NOAATempNorm[Jan-Dec]' and 'NOAARainNorm[Jan-Dec]' parameters by using a external editor to manipulate into required format, copy, and paste, the values from another source (as there are a lot of figures to type in).

+'''Please note:''' because this section of Cumulus.ini uses [[Webtags#Time.2FDate_.27format.27_Parameter|date format]] parameters, you are advised to read [[Webtags#The_format_used_for_naming_reports]].
+The settings that you use for Cumulus 1 may not be the same as settings you use for MX.  If for Cumulus 1, you used capital "M" to represent month it will work for MX too. If for Cumulus 1 you used "NOAAMO'mmyy'.txt" and you then move to MX at any version from version 3.3.0 onwards, it will automatically change your setting to  "NOAAMO'MMyy'.txt" (which works on both Cumulus MX and, if you then revert, also on Cumulus 1).
-'''Please note:''' because this section of Cumulus.ini uses [[Webtags#Time.2FDate_.27format.27_Parameter|date format]] parameters, it is not directly exchangeable between Cumulus 1 and Cumulus MX. You will need to update this section using the NOAA Setup Screen in Configuration menu.
