If you need to know the wind every few seconds - to match the noise readings which change within seconds - then you need to capture the LOOP data from the station rather than the REC data - this should give you 2 second updates. Are you sure your battery is large enough to power both the noise logger and an RPi through the night - especially if it has been a poor solar day?? Heve you tried just setting archive interval to 60 in both station and weewx (and disable the reporting engine if you do not want any reports.
