The simple way to do this is have the Pi start up in desktop mode, auto login, 
and launch a web browser pointed to your weewx web site (which can just be the 
local html directory).  

For the first part, run rasps-config and set the boot options to 
Desktop/CLI->Desktop Autologin. To get the browser launched, see for example 
https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/69204/open-chromium-full-screen-on-start-up
 
<https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/69204/open-chromium-full-screen-on-start-up>
 where the website is something like /var/www/weewx/index.html depending on 
your weewx installation.
