Tom 1. record generation set to software 2. from command line windustdir is NOT printed out for LOOP or REC 3. windgustdir is null Also just checked the weewx hardware guide and see Matthew has NOT included windgustDir as an available field for the FO stations. Andrew On Tuesday, 1 May

After checking yet again I appear to have, from my FO station, with software record generation: Archive - windspeed, windDir, windgust but NOT windgustdir Daily summaries - windspeed, windgust, winddir (not very helpful 0-360!!) but null for windgustdir am a little baffled because this is not

Andrew, are you saying that you are using software record generation on an FO station, yet you do not have windGustDir? -tk On Tue, May 1, 2018 at 7:31 AM, Andrew Milner wrote: > Tom > I am already using software generation - so it is not that! > > So yes, maybe

I think the issue is that the hardware in Fine Offset stations emit windGust, but not windGustDir. Matthew would know the details of how record generation is done for these stations, but until he chimes in, one thing you could try is to switch to software record generation. Then the accumulators

I'm hoping Tom comes back with comment/reasons from my earlier posting regarding the archive table gust/gustdir and summary tables gust and gust/dir being populated/not populated for fine offset stations. On Tuesday, 1 May 2018 13:51:19 UTC+3, Greg from Oz wrote: > > So it's not just me them

That matches what I see anyway!! The command Tom gave was for SQLite - MySQL handles date conversions differently I THINK it is something like SELECT max, FROM_UNIXTIME(maxtime) eg: SELECT max, FROM_UNIXTIME(maxtime) from archive_day_wind where dateTime>1524319200 and dateTime<=1524924000;

the easiest way to install weewx is to follow the apt-get Debian install instructions which, if followed correctly, will ask you for station type (select simulator) and altitude etc and make the initial edits to weewx.conf for you. You can still use wee_config though to edit the .conf for you

Hi It seems like any fineoffset weather stations don't see wind direction for week/month/year only current. I have looked at other weather sites running fineoffset. Greg On Monday, 30 April 2018 00:38:48 UTC+10, Thomas Keffer wrote: > > For stats on a 'week', the data would be stored in the

Hi Andrew, Thanks for the reply and your patience! My brother-in-law bought a raspberry pi and hooked it up to a weather station a couple of years back with no linux experience so guessed it would be easy enough for me to do, he is clearly smarter than me! :-) So, looking in the weewx.conf

OK it looks as though weewx is not starting. can you attach your weewx.conf to the forum. I suspect your altitude has been wrongly specified in weewx.conf it should be in the format altitude = 108, meter or altitude = 108, foot note the comma and that the units are in the singular (not
