Dew, frost melt and "rain days"

A large portion (8/23) of the "rain days" I recorded in October were
due to dew or frost melt. My question is - should they count towards
the "rain days" total for the month? It has been a fairly dry
October here in the Rhondda (190 mm - 73% of the eLTA) and I think
that 23 "rain days" is unrepresentative.
If the total from dew/frost melt is 0.2mm or more for the day then I
think that does count as a rain day, though I could be wrong!
