The naming of the tags can sometime be confusing. The long history of development of Cumulus(MX) has left its traces and although technically corrections can be made, the effort to do that is such that I won't bet on it happening. So a short guide to what can be expected follows here. | The naming of the tags can sometime be confusing.

#Inconsistency in use of "Y": The character "Y" has been selected to denote yesterday in tag names. The inconsistency is where it appears. e.g. rfallY, YSunshineHours, Ybeaufort, windAvgY | #Inconsistency in use of "Y": The character "Y" has been selected to denote yesterday in tag names.

#Inconsistency in use of "T": Where the "T" is added as indicating the time of the event (High or Low) e.g. leading to T<tag name>TH, this method is not consistently followed and may lead to some confusion. E.g. tempTH (the value for the temperature at its maximum) and TtempTH (for the time of that corresponding value). But also YearDewPointH (years highest dewpoint) and YearDewPointHT for the time of the event i.s.o. TYearDewPointH (which does not exist but which might have been more consistent). | #Inconsistency in use of "T": Where the "T" is added as indicating the time of the event (High or Low) e.g. leading to T<tag name>TH, this method is not consistently followed and may lead to some confusion.
