[weewx-user] Station hardware reccomendation
Hi Everyone I have been running Weewx for Just over a year now with Oregon Scientific LW301 and related sensors. http://weather.wesley.email:8080/ My OS equipment is getting old and weather beaten. I am up for a new Rain, Wind and a temp sensor which have all failed. While it was a bit of struggle getting the Weewx driver to the lw301 working (I think I was the first to use it in the wild), It has worked well. However With being up for 3 new sensors I tis time to review am I using the right platform for weewx. OS in Australia can be hard to get and is expensive. What to other people run as far as network connected Weather station hardware? Pro and Cons would be good.

Thanks I found where it was going wrong in the skin.conf. The one place I didn't check.

[weewx-user] Imperial/Metric rain data problem
Hi Everyone I have found I have an issue with the raid data coming back in to weewx. Looking at the data coming in from the interceptor driver I am using to ready from my OS LW300 system, the rain data is coming back as imperial figure which is converted to the correct rain delta in the driver (previous ready subtracted from the current). I have my DB set up and metric so when displaying rain.day.sum it is showing an incorrect value. What is the easiest way to fix this. I am happy to drop the previous rain figures from the DB and not convert them. Thanks Brent. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

[weewx-user] Re: New installation and appTemp
Thanks Mark, Adding the field in to the database and dropping the daily values has fixed the problem. The feels like calculation that is part of the skin now works. I have been meaning to get back to you on github about the multi channel fix you posting for me(ratava). The code change for the UV reading is working great as you can see on the website. I had some initial instability of reading the sensors reliably with the lw302 but that seems to have largely been sorted. I have noticed that the barometer readings only seem to come through on a change or a reset of the lw302. I have some details on some of the other values you might want to put in the comments. I have a bunch of sample packets I can send you as well. I will update the github problem with the detail.

[weewx-user] New installation and appTemp
Hi Everyone I have a brand new weewx site built around the Responsive skin with the interceptor driver collecting data from a Oregon Scientific setup. Weewx is configure with the target_unit set to Metric and the database configured to do so. The site is working well ( http://weather.gotgeeks.com:8080/ ) except the appTemp information. I am not getting back a metric value sent to and from the calculation. I have dug in to the code and can see the call from the wxservices.py to calculate the value and even put some code in to print the outTemp, outHumidity and winSpeed values to the syslog. For example: Nov 28 03:00:33 ip-172-31-29-42 weewx[8599]: outTemp 84.47 Nov 28 03:00:33 ip-172-31-29-42 weewx[8599]: outHumidity 41.5 Nov 28 03:00:33 ip-172-31-29-42 weewx[8599]: windSpeed 8.61224753558 Nov 28 03:00:33 ip-172-31-29-42 weewx[8599]: appTemp 82.346215 It is my understanding that if the system, database and data coming back from the sensors is in metric values, it should be stored in the database as a metric value and all calculations are metric. Also I don't see anywhere in the database schema (sqlite) that any appTemp values are being stored. >From my understanding that as of version 3.5 this is meant to be done. When I try and use the $current.appTemp value in the skin template it is not able to get a value, probably because the value it being bounds checked as being and invalid temperate for degrees_C. Is there a step I have missed in the set up regarding the setup? I have tried to read as much posts and documentation as I can but still not getting anywhere. Please help.
