Thanks all so much for the quick replies! I attempted to implement your
suggestion and got the following:
ron@WeatherPi5:~ $ sudo echo PURGE | debconf-communicate weewx
debconf: DbDriver "passwords" warning: could not open
/var/cache/debconf/passwords.dat: Permission denied

debconf: DbDriver
I think Michael is on the right track. You may have typed "feet" instead of
"foot".
Debian remembers your prior responses, so now you have a bad response in
its database and that's why your stuck. To purge the database, do this
* sudo echo PURGE | debconf-communicate weewx*
then start all
check your altitude in weewx.conf - you possibly have a typo there. It
should look like:
altitude = 365, foot# Choose 'foot' or 'meter' for unit

Just guessing by the error message:

Note that the measurement unit is always specified in the singular. That
is, specify degree_C or foot, not degrees_C or feet.
