Did you find a local weather station?
I don't see "Any Day" as an option. Only the seven days of the week. Right now, I have it set for Monday/Thursday/Saturday...

Is that what you mean?

Also what time lenght are you using for your various areas?

I set mine for:

Front Yard: 35 minutes (lots of sun)
Side Yards: 35 minutes (lots of sun)
Back yard: 15 minutes (no problem with the grass, soil is always damp. Plenty of cross-spray from lanai watering)
Lanai Shrubs/Front Shrubs: 25 minutes (also waters part of front yard)

I'm also using "Smart Cycle", which breaks each of the 4 zones in a "cycle and soak".

Does this sound reasonable?
