Thank you, but you did not include the file /tmp/mylog!

Post the full log since starting weewx. You posted only a tiny part of it.
If weewx is already running, then the following will show you log entries
since when it started:

*journalctl -u weewx --since "$(systemctl show -p ActiveEnterTimestamp
--value weewx)" >/var/tmp/weewx.log*


In this case, include the file /var/tmp/weewx.log
