[I am looking at rainfall > accumulations and rates] Ok, by default, there should be some contour values along the contour lines. I am surprise you didn't get any. In your case, you may want to increase the density of the contour values. In the Displays tab of the Dashborad, there is contour control. Click the "Change" button of the Contour, you will see a Contour properties editor" window popup, and you can change the density of the contour value in this window.
