No Andrew, 6 is for when you are using SteelSeries with gauge-data.txt, the above question relates to weewx-WD where you are mimicing WD (and using customclientraw.txt). The issue is almost certainly an issue of incorrect paths. Your saratoga php pages seem to be in the st directory on your web

If you hover over the windspeed gauge you should see a graph with stats above. That data comes straight from the output of weewx using $day.windSpeed.max for the max average and $day.windGust.max for the max gust. Both are 9mph. If you want to see the raw data behind the dials you can load wea

Weewx calculates the average wind speed in each archive interval and records that in the database as windSpeed. For a tag like $day.windSpeed.avg, it takes those values and averages them over the day. So, it's the average of a bunch of averages. Still seeing "Test" for http://while.org.uk What do
