I am looking to upgrade my ancient sprinkler controller with a new wi-fi enabled one. I do not need tons of fancy features since we are pretty limited on when can we use sprinklers due to the water restrictions. Currently, I can only water on Wednesdays and Sundays.
My question is, does the RainBird ST8 controller offers an automatic skip of watering day if there is a rain in the forecast or it had rained a day before? I.e. if the system is set to go off on Wednesday, can the ST8 stop Wednesday's watering if it had rained on Tuesday or rain is expected on Thursday? That's pretty much the only feature I really need in the new controller as it will save me from constantly going to the garage to manually turn the system on and off.
