[weewx-user] Re: "not reporting" after power outage
If you are using the Acurite console and the batteries have died (IOW, the console was unpowered for a period of time) it will come back up in USB mode 2 which does not send ay data out the USB port, by default. There is no known software method to reset this, you'll need to manually reset to USB Mode 4.

[weewx-user] bad Accurate rain data
[wasn't sure if this belonged in the development group or here, so posting to both places] Hi all, I’ve got an Accurate 5-in-1, with the sensor at the top of a tower (100 feet or so) and the console in a blockhouse on the bottom. The console is in USB mode 4, and attached to a computer running CentOS with WeeWX running. Today we had a line of severe thunderstorms so out team went back to check what was reported. Wind/Temp/Humidity/Wind Vector information all seem to be correct. However, the rain amount is showing up with rain last night when we had clear conditions and a HUGE number for rain today. The sensor could be reporting a faulty number, or possibly this is caused by the Accurite driver or WeeWX itself. If anyone has any debugging ideas I’d appreciate it. (Kind of a challenge to get at the sensor array, it’s on top of a mast on top of the tower). I have a very similar model of weather station at home and it correctly reflected .2 inches of rain. Here’s the database search and the output. Thanks in advance, Jerry KB2GCG [w3vd@w3dra-ebright-server01 ~]$ echo "SELECT dateTime,rain,rainrate FROM archive WHERE rain > 0 or rainrate > 0 order by dateTime;" | sqlite3 /var/lib/weewx/weewx.sdb datetime rain rainrate 1488005400 0.68 1.6838095238 1488005700 0 2.72 1488006000 0 2.72 1488006300 0 1.0361904762 1488059100 0.05 0.05 1488059400 0.4 1.06 1488059700 0.16 2.259047619 148806 0.08 2.422 1488060300 0.03 1.7454545455 1488060600 0.01 0.656 1488060900 0 0.4495238095 1488061200 0 0.1145454545 1488061500 0 0.014 1488061800 0.01 0.0304761905 1488062100 0.01 0.0472727273 1488062400 0 0.08 1488062700 0.01 0.0780952381 1488063000 0 0.0727272727 1488063300 0 0.04 1488063600 0 0.0114285714 1488064200 0.01 0.002 1488064500 0 0.04 1488064800 0 0.04 1488065100 0 0.0380952381 1488065400 70.2 93.6 1488065700 0 280.8 1488066000 0 280.8 1488066300 0 187.2 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

[weewx-user] radar doesn't display correctly
On the good news front, we now have our Accurate weather station installed
at Ebright Tower and running and available via our ham radio mesh network.
Now we're down to refinements and working out annoying minor bugs, one of
which is that I can't seem to get the radar working properly with both an
ing and a link to a loop.
Right now all I have showing is the word "Radar" which is a link to our
local loop.
Our files are config'd as follows:
rom skins.conf file
# Put any extra tags here that you want to be available in the templates
# Here's an example.
# This radar image would be available as $Extras.radar_img
radar_img =
http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=dox&product=N0R&overlay=1110&loop=no
# This URL will be used as the image hyperlink:
radar_url =
http://radar.weather.gov/radar.php?rid=DOX&product=NCR&overlay=1110&loop=yes
# Here's another. If you have a Google Analytics ID, uncomment and edit
# the next line, and the analytics code will automatically be included
# in your generated HTML files:
#googleAnalyticsId = UA-12345678-1
>From the index.html.tmpl
#if $Extras.has_key('radar_img')
#if $Extras.has_key('radar_url')
#end if
#if $Extras.has_key('radar_url')
Click image for expanded radar loop
#end if
#end if
What is displayed on the web page is just the word “Radar” which links to
the loop.
What am I missing ?

There were definitely a few things incorrect in the doc (glad to share my feedback if someone will point me in the right direction), but it's all working now.

[weewx-user] Help with Apache
Hi all, For those who may not remember, I’m a ham radio operator and we’re planning on putting up a weather station on a local tower and integrate it with our AREDN Mesh network for use bye emergency services (local/county/state). Well, I’ve made some progress (Interrupted by a family item, so took a break). I installed all the other items I needed (such as an Apache Server) and then followed the directions here: weewx: Installation using setup.py I had a successful install and have things setup so that both Apache and weewx startup automatically on my Raspberry Pi upon restart. When I check with : file:///home/weewx/public_html/index.html it looks great, so this is good progress. I followed these instructions to integrate with Apache: If weewx was installed using setup.py, you must tell Apache where to find the weewx reports. One method is to install an Apache configuration snippet: sudo cp util/apache/conf.d/weewx.conf /etc/apache2/conf.d Be sure that the path in the Apache configuration snippet matches the HTML_ROOT defined in the weewx configuration file. For example, the path for a default setup.py installation would look like this: Alias /weewx /home/weewx/public_html Options FollowSymlinks AllowOverride None Restart Apache to make the changes happen: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart The conf.d file was created (it wasn’t there before) and it had the right root and so on in the file. I restarted Apache, and even restarted the Pi, but I’m getting a 404 when I try and access using the URL of http://localhost/weewx <http://localhost/weewx> When I try http://localhost/home/weewx/public_html/index.html <http://localhost/home/weewx/public_html/index.html> I also get a 404 with an error message from Apache saying “The requested URL /home/weewx/public)html/index.html was not found on this server Any suggestions ?

Re: [weewx-user] Integration with AREDN mesh network
Hello all again, and for those celebrating the holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, joyous Kwanza and if I missed something, the best of the holiday season to you. I did get an Acurite weather station with USB. I hooked up my computer to the USB and was able to download info, showing that the interface was working. I got a Pi3 setup and running. I installed weewx as per the instructions. I started up weewx as: sudo weewx weewx.conf I then get an error message, because the configuration file is in /etc/weewx not in /home/pi if I do a cd /etc/weewx and try to run it there, it can’t find the program. OK, it’s been years since I’ve seriously used Unix of any kind directly. Any clues as to tell it how to find the config file ?

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Integration with AREDN mesh network
Thank you Joe. I was looking at the Vantage Vue, but the least expensive seems to be about $265, so if you have any ideas about something less expensive that would be helpful. I presume the console is connected to the Pi via the USB interface ? Any recommendation on model (or add on’s) ? What you are describing seems like what I’m looking for, and we can make the web server available as a resource on the mesh. Thanks again for your help with this. 73’s Jerry KB2GCG > On Dec 18, 2016, at 12:07 PM, Joe Spears wrote: > > Jerry, > > This is easy to do out of the box. > > In my set up I have a Vantage Vue Weather station in my yard.

[weewx-user] Integration with AREDN mesh network
Hi all, I'm very very new to whew, so apologies in advance if this has been covered. I've seen some discussion but can't quite find what I want. I'm part of a team that is building a local AREDN mesh network (www.aredn.org). This network will be related to offering emergency communications to various supported organizations during emergency situations where regular comms might not be available. We'll be offering a host of services (everything from phones to IM). One of the items that I thought would be helpful is to be able to supply weather conditions and weewx seems to fit the bill. I'll be placing the weather sensor (a 5 in 1 or something similar) at the top of a tower (we have a camera there already) and the console in the building below (most of these devices seem to use 433mhz to communicate which is fine). That's the easy part. What I'm looking to do is have a Pi running attached to the console and serving up the weather information visible to anyone who has access to the mesh network (IOW, it would have to run as a web server so others could see it). Any suggestions in terms of weather devices (most of the ones that are on the tested list are either unavailable or very expensive) ? Is there a feature in weewx that could continue to send the data to the manufacturer's site as well as consume it ?
