Right after posting I found the forecastnig extension, that has a tide component:
https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/forecasting It seems to fit the bill, but I'm currently getting lots of these errors during generation: Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/reportengine.py", line 242, in run > obj.start() > File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/reportengine.py", line 275, in start > self.run() > File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/cheetahgenerator.py", line 150, in run > ngen = self.generate(gen_dict[section_name], self.gen_ts) > File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/cheetahgenerator.py", line 219, in generate > ngen += self.generate(section[subsection], gen_ts) > File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/cheetahgenerator.py", line 219, in generate > ngen += self.generate(section[subsection], gen_ts) > File "/home/weewx/bin/weewx/cheetahgenerator.py", line 234, in generate > self.skin_dict['skin'])) > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/configobj.py", line 554, in > __getitem__ > val = dict.__getitem__(self, key) > KeyError: 'skin' I'm guessing it's user error and an issue with my weewx.conf file, but so far it's got me stumped.
