Success!

Pi was configured as a wireless access point,
Traffic was directed from the weather station to the pi (access point) by 
using the "Weather Connect" app via iPhone. 

driver = user.interceptor
    device_type = observer
    mode = sniff
    iface = wlan0
    pcap_filter = src 10.0.0.23 and dst port 80

Where "wlan0"= Pi configured as wifi access point and "10.0.0.23" is the IP 
address of the weather station on the network

Makes me wonder if I could have just sniffed this off the comcast router in 
the first place.  I will do more testing and report.
