Tom - just in response: Yes, I have the WeatherLink unit and am getting the barometer and temp info on the console and on weewx etc. This is the weewx driver I found for it : https://github.com/michael-slx/weewx-weatherlink-live As just mentioned in an email 10mins ago, I had not been updating this driver and so on checking this morning found it was 2 years out of date (I installed weewx about 2 years ago). A reinstall seems to have fixed (for now) the memory problem.
