Hey Mike, First, just wanted to say thank you for your posts here and also your website. If you have noticed any traffic from Belize recently, that's me. I really appreciate all the time you've taken to document and share how you built your set up. Thank you!
Second, I'm in the early stages of my weewx life. The next big step is for me to publish my weather station data via weewx to a custom domain. And I want my equipment in Belize to do as little as possible. I would like to learn about cloud computing and this seems like a good opportunity to start. An overview of what I've got so far: Weatherflow Tempest Raspberry Pi 4 Weewx 4.5.1 Belchertown skin (installed but not my default skin) Sending data via weewx to all the usual suspects: WU, PWSWeather, Weathercloud, WOW, Windy, Weewx map, etc. If you look on the weewx map, my station is the one in Belize. All working smoothly. I can access the weewx default skin and belchertown skin on my internal network. I have a few questions for you: 1. I see that the weather page on your site updates automatically every 5 minutes. Is that 5 minutes set by the archive interval in weewx? Could I make it update more frequently if I wanted? 2. I think you've built a "lighter" custom skin, in part to keep AWS costs down. Is that right? If I disregard costs for the time being, can I skip creating the custom skin? Or, if II set my default skin as Belchertown (or any other skin), will weewx send that to the S3 bucket? 3. I've never hosted a site on AWS. I own a domain that I would like to use for this project. Is there a useful guide that you recommend that I can study to understand the webhost side of all this? Thanks!
