Here's an interesting piece of data. I'm using Tom's new almanac.py and Moon.py on a testbed version of WeeWX. On my "production" instance of WeeWX, I have the versions of those files originally installed with WeeWX 3.9.1.
On my production instance the moon is listed as 29% visible and is described as "Waning Crescent" (which matches what WU says). On my testbed instance, the moon is listed at 29% visible but is described as "Last Quarter". So it looks like the version that Tom updated hasn't yet updated the description from Last Quarter to Waning Crescent. That should have occurred as the visible amount decreased to 40%. I'm not sure if that's due to the variability Tom mentioned or something in the new version that should be changed.
