this is a bug (or misbehavior - depends who you ask) in debian on rpi if there is no /dev/xconsole https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=742113 > 2) "Oct 15 13:03:28 raspberrypi weewx[3225]: acurite: R1: ignoring stale > data (rssi indicates no communication from sensors): 01 ee 46 71 02 19 02 > 2b 00 00" > - Possibly the weather sensor outside is having some > transmission/signal issues?
