Are you saying that the database is showing the delta in the database as imperial - or as metric (ie in cm)? Check that the units sections of weewx.conf and skin.conf are not changing the units back to imperial You can also change the units by using the dot codes within a template eg $rain

If your database is metric then rain is in cm If your database is metricwx then rain is mm Your NOAA report is, according to the title line above the table, in mm - but the units are determined by the contents of the template and so can easily be changed to other units by changing the template a

I'm not sure what exactly your question is. If you are trying to figure out how to edit the file, then you need to use an editor. "nano" is a good straight-forward choice: nano /etc/weewx/weewx.conf However, /etc is typically a protected directory and you have to a) either be logged in as r

jerry, you might try using a pure systemd configuration instead of using an rc script. the weewx rc script *should* work with systemd, but lately there have been postings to this forum that indicate that might be changing. get rid of the rc script: sudo /etc/init.d/weewx stop sudo update-rc.d
