I'm trying to get precipitation data from a weather station on a day where I am 99% sure it rained but I'm being told there was no rain on that day The url I'm calling is: https://api.weather.gov/stations/KRGA/observations?start=2023-03-30T00%3A00%3A00Z&end=2023-03-31T12%3A00%3A00Z. Is it possible this weather station just doesn't track rainfall? Am I doing something wrong? |

A couple places to check for metadata to see if a site has a precipitation sensor: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/homr/ My database has no precipitation reported from this site since its 2019 start date. |

https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/weather/asos indicates RGA is a AWOS-3, so it isn't maintained to the quality of a NWS/FAA ASOS, so it could be plugged or not have the sensor or about anything else under the sun.
