Good idea! It actually could be sunlight. The time (late afternoon) would fit. And yes, August 3 was a day without much sun. So was Aug 7, where the effect was also less pronounced. Today will be a sunny day, so I'll move the Meteostick a bit into the shadow and see what happens. Am Freitag,

Tor Thank you much for your prompt reply agreed and acknowledged! I previously had a 5-1 Acurite unit that died of exposure, and Atlas was a replacement. Still think that was a good and honest product improvement, but RELY concerned about their software and data sharing marketing

Correct. One for the big "icks" for Acurite is the try their darnest to hide all of the data. All you can get is basic data going to WU. Next month I am going to dig into SDR and try to decode the Atlas station and see if I can get better data into WeeWx. On Thursday, August 8, 2019 at

That's really weird. Your barometer line is absolutely parallel to the other two lines. But when looking at the weewx code, the effect of the temperature calibration on 'barometer' should definitely by bigger. Ahh .. maybe that's the reason: Belchertown is only at a height of 180 meters! I'm

My initial question was to try and isolate the readings (to see where the problem is)... Does the Meteostick have a way to see its values without weewx? (web ui? serial port?) Trying to see if the stick is the problem or if it's weewx. The driver looks like it expects "pressure" from the

Yes, the pressure values come from the Meteostick. I'm less concerned about the actual level of the barometer values - that's something I can calibrate. I'm more concerned about the ups and downs that heavily correlate with my temperature and humidity values. Am Donnerstag, 8. August 2019

Actually this is probably a bad comparison since I think the Meteostick comes with it's own barometer on the stick itself - so the values won't be identical. On Thursday, August 8, 2019 at 3:25:37 PM UTC-4, Brezentrager wrote: > > The values on the console are generally lower. Currently -

A driver could be written to support this, it will just take someone to invest some time to write it. It's not difficult but without knowing the hardware or the REST data schema there can be challenges. weewx operates on a LOOP idea where the weather data is available at specific intervals.
