don't know if this will help
using weewx 4.8.0 python 3
i have in Seasons skin.conf
[CheetahGenerator]
[[SummaryByMonth]]
# Reports that summarize "by month"
[[[NOAA_month]]]
encoding = normalized_ascii
template = NOAA/NOAA-%Y-%m.txt.tmpl
# html to show noaa year month side by side
[[[HtmlNOAA_month]]]
encoding = html_entities
template = NOAA/NOAA-EXTRA-YYYY-MM.html.tmpl
# 5n1 noaa year month text file
[[[ExtraNOAA_month]]]
encoding = normalized_ascii
template = NOAA/NOAA-EXTRA-%Y-%m.txt.tmpl
[[SummaryByYear]]
# Reports that summarize "by year"
[[[NOAA_year]]]
encoding = normalized_ascii
template = NOAA/NOAA-%Y.txt.tmpl
# html to show noaa year side by side
[[[HtmlNOAA_year]]]
encoding = html_entities
template = NOAA/NOAA-EXTRA-YYYY.html.tmpl
# 5n1 noaa year file
[[[ExtraNOAA_year]]]
encoding = normalized_ascii
template = NOAA/NOAA-EXTRA-%Y.txt.tmpl
this makes files like this
normal NOAA year file NOAA-2014.txt
normal NOAA month file NOAA-2014-12.txt
html year file NOAA-EXTRA-2014.html
html month file NOAA-EXTRA-2014-12.txt
extra year file NOAA-EXTRA-2014.txt
extra month file NOAA-EXTRA-2014-12.txt
