Your problem is that wee_database --add_column/--rename_column makes all necessary changes to the database, but it does not make any change to the WeeWX unit system; in other words WeeWX knows there is a field wetbulbTemp in the database but does not know if it is a temperature, wind speed or rainfall. To fix this you need to add wetbulbTemp to the WeeWX unit system, the usual approach for this is to add a couple of lines of code to user/extensions.py (refer to Assigning a unit group <http://weewx.com/docs.html/latest/customizing.htm#Assigning_a_unit_group> in the Customization Guide <http://weewx.com/docs.html/latest/customizing.htm>), in your case something like the following should work (untested):
import weewx.units weewx.units.obs_group_dict['wetbulbTemp'] = 'group_temperature' For the WeeWX daemon this will take effect when WeeWX is restarted, but for the purposes of wee_import it should work straight away.
