Weather based water level bug?

@ marcoo624:
I am near Sacramento and we are about to enter mandatory water use restrictions. My entire outdoor watering is under drip irrigation but still uses more than the allocated amount. I have started to install watermark soil moisture sensors which can provide a much more accurate estimate of irrigation needs than weather based estimates.
The plan is to develop a plugin that uses sensor data for irrigation management. Documentation for the sensors does state that user experience is a key factor in proper irrigation management:

I think I found a rain related bug in the plugin.  Can you help contact the author so I can discuss it with him?
