You can correct today's total using the 'today's rain' editor on the edit menu.  
You can correct today's total using the 'today's rain' editor on the edit menu. You may choose to also stop Cumulus and edit [[today.ini]] to change the ''LastTip=''(look up previous value in a recently backed up today.ini) parameter.  Remember that 'ConsecutiveDryDays' does not include today.


If the erroneous rainfall didn't occur today, you just need to edit the total for the relevant day in dayfile.txt, using the dayfile.txt editor on the edit menu. You may then need to restart Cumulus to get the correct monthly and annual totals.
