[weewx-user] How to backup weewx data and restore it after a new OS installation

[Rakesh R]

I'm running Weewx in a raspberry pi for past 1 year.
My SD card is showing some problems, so i want to replace it with a new 
16gb SD card.
Meaning... i'll install a fresh copy of Raspbian and Weewx.
How to backup the present Weewx db and everything then restore it on my 
fresh OS. ??

Please guide.
Thanks
Rakesh

[weewx-user] Re: weewx data loop error with new Acurite 02064C

[Kelly Hewitt]

>
> Acurite 02064C weewx LOOP error on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Failed attempt 1 of 10 to get LOOP data: error sending control message: 
Protocol error 

I've had issues with this for about 13 months. It most often occurs when 
the weewx host reboots, the Acurite display unit will then have USB 
protocol issues for several hours until the acurite.py script effectively 
regains connection with the display unit. I don't like gaps in data and 
this has plagued me for a year. 

Tested:

   1. Ferrite on the USB cable - No effect
   2. Reset the display console - No effect
   3. New USB cable (x2) - No effect
   4. CRON usb script task to reset the USB connection every 4 hours - no 
   effect
   5. Start the weewx host then plug in the display - no effect
   6. Plug in the display then start the weewx host - no effect
   

*The only quick solution I've found is to unplug the display from the weewx 
host and connect it to a Windows machine with the Acurite Connect software 
and allow it to complete a data dump, unplug it, then plug the display USB 
into the weewx host.*

After plugging it back into the weewx host and watching the ubuntu syslog 
(sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog) it will indicate after a few attempts that 
the USB connection is active and receiving data in +/- 5 minutes.

This suggests the USB controller in the display device is getting reset 
with the Acurite Connect software - outside the scope of what weewx 
currently has access to. It's unfortunate there isn't a method to reset the 
display device USB connection remotely.

*If someone has the ability to decompose the Acurite Connect software and 
find out how it is resetting the USB controller on the display device that 
would be very much appreciated.*

Re: [weewx-user] Sum of cold hours per day

[Thomas Keffer]

weewx cannot do the aggregation type "min_le" for an "hour" time span. Nor
has it ever been able to.

 $day.outTemp.min_le($HorasFrio).nolabel($Count,$NONE) $day.outTemp.max_ge($
HorasCalor).nolabel($Count,$NONE)$hour.outTemp.min_le($
HorasFrio).nolabel($Count,$NONE) $hour.outTemp.max_ge($
HorasCalor).nolabel($Count,$NONE)

 $month.outTemp.min_le($HorasFrio) $month.outTemp.max_ge($HorasCalor) $hour
.outTemp.min_le($HorasFrio) $hour.outTemp.max_ge($HorasCalor)

[weewx-user] Re: Current Windspeed in Beaufort ? Bft?

[Eelco F]

I do have a question on this.

I noticed that as of weewx 3.2 there is a beaufort calculation in 
Stdwxcalculate, right?

Now how do I get beaufort values in my reports? Until now I used javascript 
too, but it should be possible directly from weewx?

[weewx-user] Sum of cold hours per day

[Alejandro Guzmán]

Hello im Alejandro from mexico,

I am working on a Summation of cold hours in NOAA report but with the last 
modification weewx no longer generates the report.

These are the lines that adds

 $day.outTemp.min_le($HorasFrio).nolabel($Count,$NONE) 
$day.outTemp.max_ge($HorasCalor).nolabel($Count,$NONE)$hour.outTemp.min_le($HorasFrio).nolabel($Count,$NONE)
 
$hour.outTemp.max_ge($HorasCalor).nolabel($Count,$NONE)

 $month.outTemp.min_le($HorasFrio) $month.outTemp.max_ge($HorasCalor) 
$hour.outTemp.min_le($HorasFrio) $hour.outTemp.max_ge($HorasCalor)


regards!!

the three temperature rows are maximum, expected value, and minimum.  in 
the screenshot you posted you can see a max at 19h.  some forecasts have 
max and min for every period.

the two wind speed rows are speed and gust.

the [object Object] is a bug.  i fixed it awhile ago, but that 'fix' ended 
up removing the tide indicators.

[weewx-user] Re: Pi users: your additional software for Raspberry Pi3?

[Steve]

Not really Bill, although the raw cpm can vary a bit, the average always 
looks flat.

You can see my data as cpm or equivalent dosage here on the uradmonitor 
website: http://www.uradmonitor.com/?open=1161

Following the uradmonitor forum sometimes shows some interesting readings. 
Here's a thread with some readings after myocardial perfusion 
scans 
http://www.uradmonitor.com/topic/510c-high-but-exponential-declining-readings/

Some how I managed to write a php file that runs via cron every 5 minutes 
and parses the json data from my monitor and write it to a MySQL database 
and read / display it here http://wotid.dyndns.org/solarhtml/radiation.php

I spent a bunch of coin on some python books (learning, programming, pocket 
reference by Lutz) & have access to the WeeWx fileparse example but have 
yet tried to incorporate my radiation data into WeeWx so I can have the 
results displayed alongside my weather data to see if there are any 
correlations between the two. :( I'm a slacker.

Regards,

Steve.

pete,

please update to forecast 3.2.13

there must have been something about the forecast on 7 feb, because 
the current forecast for RAH/NCZ041 is not causing the problem.


i did some minor refactoring and added some logging, so if it happens 
again you'll get a log message and the forecast service will not crap out.


the log message is "NWS: mode unset for label 'xxx'" where xxx is the 
label in the nws forecast that is causing the problem.
