So you are able to SSH into the RPi? Assuming you can, once the RPi has booted check on the status of the weeWX daemon: $ sudo systemctl status weewx What does that show? Also have another look at the log. There will be a lot of stuff there from when the RPi booted but you should also see

WeeWX stores its data in the archive table in your weewx database, one archive record per row. A summary table is created for each observation field that records daily highs/lows/sums, counts and times etc. These summary tables are used as an optimization strategy when aggregates are sought
