On Windows you can use PuTTY to SSH to the Pi. When you highlight an area of text, it automatically copies it without needing to press CTRL+C. Just a small tip for future reference.
The fact that you don't see weewx.com referenced in the sudo apt update means the first 2 lines probably didn't work. You can try to paste them in again, it won't hurt. In PuTTY, you can right click the window and it'll auto paste without having to press CTRL+V. Then try the sudo apt update again and see what the output is?
