why do you say it is updated in the webpage and the database??  The data on 
the webpage comes from the database!!

have you tried forcing a browser page reload (shift refresh usually) when 
things appear 'stuck'??  There is no reason whatsoever why humidity should 
be any different with regards updates than the other fields?

you can capture the terminal output from running directly by sending the 
terminal output to a file as a simple way

the log does not appear to show anything strange, and confirms that archive 
records are being written every 3 minutes
