Hello,
My outside temperature, my barometer, my dew point, my gust wind are
completely crazy!
Important: this happened after an upgrade from 4.2.0 to 4.3.0, where I had
to install the WMR200 extension as it is no longer in the main weewx in
4.3.0. So please consider something might be wrong with my config for the
extension/simulator.
Also, I used to use Python 2.7 and have shifted to Python 3.x. So, that
also might be a source of issue.
My configuration is :
- WMR200 station (using weewx-wmr200 extension)
- My original WMR200 temperature sensor is KO and I have "replaced" it
with a DIY sensor that sends its data using MQTT. Thus the MQTT extension.
- My wind battery and my UV battery are low (but I wonder if it's not
just a detection issue, because they are always low even when I change
batteries).
- I attach my weewx.conf
*Temperature: *
The current outside temperature is 9°C. You see below that I receive a MQTT
message saying it is 9.14. Unit is degrees celsius. This is okay.

I also have an 'accumulated temperature'. Don't know exactly what that is,
and I'm surprised usUnits is 1. Strange.

My report in my template displays $current.outTemp to "-0.9°C" !!! This not
9C, nor 48F :(
*Barometer*
On the WMR console, barometer indicates approx 980 mbar.
Why does this log say 31??? Other unit?

31.042868851248706,
My report displays $current.barometer to 1053 mbar !!! This is not 980 !!
*Wind gust*
I have currently 3/5 km/h. But my report says 0 km/h. It could happen that
at a given time it is zero, but still I am suspicious about the value.
I think there's a configuration issue somewhere in my files. This is crazy.
