At 06:20 yesterday I got my first email advising me that my VantageVue transmitter battery was low.

Around 1600 yesterday I replaced the battery

Since the first email I've been intermittently getting multiple emails like 7 emails at once for a total of 25 at various times advising that the battery is low.

The console stopped reporting low battery at midnight, yet I continued to get emails until 0544 this morning.

This is my Alarm stanza

[Alarm]
    time_wait = 3600
    count_threshold = 50
    smtp_host = mailbox
    from = xxx@xxxx
    mailto = XXXX
    subject = Time to change the battery!
This is what is in the weewx.log

By my figuring I shouldn't have gotten any more emails after midnight.

So is this an extremely minor bug or have I configured something incorrectly?

This is weewx 3.8 running on Centos 7.5
