Thanks to Vince I have dived into weewx wiki, there to Raspberry and 
problems with missing clock. Finally I found this:
sudo systemctl enable systemd-time-wait-sync

This should let the kernel wait for time sync being ready before 
Requires=time-sync.target 
becomes active. So far for short, as I understood the man page 
<https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-time-wait-sync.service.html>
.
At least the error at reboot is gone now.

Thanks to Vince for leading me on this track. And Thanks to Michael for the 
hint to setting the locale with raspi-config.

Anyway, I have detected, that I was messed up with the way, I updated from 
Weewx version 4.10. to 5.0.
But, I prefer to put this update topic into a separate thread
