I have a Pi running weewx.  I want to run it without a connected weather 
station. The weather data will be scraped at regular intervals off some 
other stations. I can do the scraping. Why? I have been running an FO + 4 
cameras as airfield weather stations.  Some of these fields have better 
(commercial-grade) Wx stations funded by someone else.  Without cameras. I 
have been given permission to scrape them. 

I want to continue using weewx as the data manager, html page maker etc 
etc., so I would like to insert this scraped data into the weewx system.  

Aside from writing a new driver (way beyond me), the logical place seems to 
be the simulator driver.  I guess I could clone it and make appropriate 
weewx.conf changes.  

How do I kludge the clone to get its data from someplace else (probably a 
file ...)?

As a last resort, I can insert my values into the generated html before 
upload but that seems to be a horrible way to do it ....
