In the absence of any information about what unit group a measurement belongs to, WeeWX formats the number as a string, which usually leads to an abundance of digits beyond the decimal point.
Be sure to assign the measurement to a unit group. See the section *Assigning a unit group <https://www.weewx.com/docs/5.0/custom/units/#assigning-a-unit-group>* in the Customizing Guide.
