This release includes an important bug fix, plus a few additions. I am particularly interested in the first item on the list: the on-the-fly patch of the daily summaries to fix a V4.2 bug. This bug caused the daily summaries to weight the sums improperly. The patch fixes them. It should run on startup of weewxd, and take only a couple seconds.
Available in the usual place: http://weewx.com/downloads/development_versions/ -tk CHANGES: Version 4.2.0 had a bug, which caused the sums in the daily summary to be incorrectly calculated. This version includes a patch to fix the problem. It runs once at startup. Fixes issue #623. Service weewx.wxxtypes.StdDelta was inadvertently left out of the list of services to be run. Fortunately, it is not used. Yet. Added it back in. Added the "old" NWS algorithm as an option for calculating heat index. Changed how various undocumented parameters in [StdWXCalculate] are specified. The only one people are likely to have used is 'ignore_zero_wind'. Its name has changed to 'force_null', and it has been moved. See the Upgrading Guide. Documented the various [StdWXCalculate] options. Fixed corner case for windDir when using software record generation, ignore_zero_wind=True, and windSpeed=0 for entire record interval. Now emits last windDir value. Fixed problem when looking up stars with more than one word in their name. Fixes issue #620. Fixed problem where wind gust direction is not available when using software record generation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
