Tom, This just compounds my confusion. How does WeeWX get from Davis local time to UTC? Can't WeeWX take DST into account during the conversion? On Friday, 28 October 2016 18:43:03 UTC+3, Tom Keffer wrote: > > On Fri, Oct 28, 2016 at 8:36 AM, Robin > > wrote: > >> That bit I understand Tom. Th

Re: [weewx-user] How to use humidex, apparent temperature, evapotranspiration, cloud base and maximum solar radiation?

Hi, You will find the formula use for Apparent Temperature here . If you understand python you will find the weewx implementation of this formula in the file wxformulas.py which, depending on your install, you will most likely find in

[weewx-user] Re: Weewx to weatherdisplay

If you do get WD to import a weewx-wd generated clientraw.txt just keep in the back of your mind that the clientraw.txt file is only generated each report cycle ie every archive interval, whereas traditionally clientraw.txt is generated much more frequently by the likes of WD and other programs.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Weewx to weatherdisplay

Maybe this would help: http://www.weather-watch.com/smf/index.php?topic=11225.0 describes how to use the clientraw.txt file as an input I believe - so if weewx produces that file (which I can do) then weatherdisplay should be able to use it according to the linkpage Mike - there is an outstandi

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Weewx to weatherdisplay

Easy there dude. If he wants to keep his old WD display, that's his business. As for posting to weewx-user, his query was whether anyone had done such a thing, not on the programming to do so. -tk On Fri, Oct 28, 2016 at 10:02 AM, Andrew Milner wrote: > Why on earth would anyone want to export

[weewx-user] Re: Weewx to weatherdisplay

Why on earth would anyone want to export data to weatherdisplay - instead of to a more universal site such as WU?? What is the benefit and purpose for exporting to weaherdisplay which cannot be achieved by other more generic means?? What exactly are you trying to achieve - apart from just tryin

[weewx-user] Re: Weewx to weatherdisplay

Thankyou Gary for your reply. I lke Weewx sinse its runs on a Raspberry Pi, something that the full version of WeatherDisplay does not. For the past 10 years I have been using a Oregon Scientific WMR200 weather station connected to my PC, which has verved me well. Sadly many of its sensors

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Current wisdom on the end of DST

Tom - out of curiosity (as I can only aspire to and dream of a Davis) - what would be lost by Davis stations using software generation instead of hardware? I know that on \FineOffset I have always used software generation and ignored the archived records on the station. One can always revert

That bit I understand Tom. The bit that confuses me is, I thought that WeeWX stored the data using UTC. On Friday, 28 October 2016 18:32:43 UTC+3, Tom Keffer wrote: > > > > On Fri, Oct 28, 2016 at 8:29 AM, Robin > > wrote: > >> I have a Davis Vantage Pro 2. >> >> As pointed out in the link you

[weewx-user] Re: Current wisdom on the end of DST

I have a Davis Vantage Pro 2. As pointed out in the link you posted, the issue is the time stamp. Last year I seem to recall an hours worth of errors as WeeWX tried to write records to a time stamp that already existed and therefore 'lost' the data. I like an easy life so was hoping that somebo

Robin . what does the user guide say - or perhaps the hardware guide since any issues will be weather station specific. On Friday, 28 October 2016 17:34:38 UTC+3, vince wrote: > > On Thursday, October 27, 2016 at 10:20:34 PM UTC-7, Robin wrote: >> >> Daylight savings time ends this weekend. I

Re: [weewx-user] Re: No data from station

Thank you Matthew. After some more digging and testing I came to the conclusion: It is not weewx itself that causes the issue, but the WMR300 driver for some reason. I downgraded to weewx 3.5.0 and everything worked fine. After copying the WMR300 driver files I upgraded again to the latest vers
