== Monthly table (old) ==
== Monthly table (2.0 version) ==
For versions below 2.0, the first column as shown below did not exist, instead there was one column for date and one column for time.
For versions below 2.0, the first combined column as shown with both date and time did not exist, instead there was one column for date and one column for time.


As for the MX version as pointed out by Water01 in the support forum, the RG-11 field in the code and in the schema below is wrong, it should have 2 decimal places for those using inches like the other rainfall fields.
