I think you might find there have been a few over the years, I certainly had one a couple of years back <https://groups.google.com/d/topic/weewx-development/zi2GFZBPXoc/discussion>, you could set your watch by it it was so predictable. It eventually disappeared for reasons unknown to me. I suspect Neil's plot here <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/weewx-user/2j37Vzj20lA/Meof35BMAwAJ> was also symptomatic of a leak. I'm not sure that Steve is presently running a pure vanilla OS/weeWX install but that is about the only way to track it down; go right back to the basics, monitor usage and once you are happy there is no leak add one thing at a time and monitor again until you are certain there is no leak. Repeat. And I would be adding things in order of complexity, simplest first, more complex later.
