Let's face it. Weewx is a huge leap forward from Virtual Weather Station.

produces.

Is it possible to have weewx display a week of 24 hour rainfall totals
starting from 7 AM one day and ending at 7 AM the next? I'd like to
display this in a table for the last 7 days.
Thanks in advance.

Hey Tom,
Just wanted to thank you again. We've had a couple more rain events and all
the rain amounts match now.

I put the following in StdCalibrate:
rain = rain * 0.93
My new tipping spoon from Davis is a bit too generous with the tips. It
seems to work in some places, but not others. Strange, right?
So the gauge measured 0.54 today. That was correctly reduced to 0.50 in the

Thanks for the detailed response!
I'll try to elaborate on everything here.
1) Under StdArchive: record_generation = hardware
2) Units are in "inches/hour"
3) First sql query from archive is the same as the second from
archive_day_rainRate. 9.44, which while high, is certainly plausible in

I don't think this is a true weewx or Belchertown issue since my rainrate
is set to prefer hardware, but I'm getting some new behavior over the last
few months that I hadn't seen before.
Every once in a while, I will get a rainrate of 655.35, even if it did

that might be able to create the images I would like to add to the image

Anyone know of any skins that can produce a static image with most
parameters in either text or dial format? The web pages are great, but I'd
love to find something that creates an image with T, MaxT, MinT, Wind,
Precip (at the least) and ftp it to a friend's web site.
Thanks in advance,

I know I'm not at the latest version of Belchertown. In fact, I'm still
using the older version (3.9.2). I've tried copying
/etc/weewx/skins/Belchertown/graphs.conf.example to graphs.conf, but I
can't find where to change wind direction from ordinal direction to degrees.

I have an API key from WU. It's free (probably because my station is

a way to embed a forecast in your page using WU with a key? Has anyone

Is there a way to save off the raw data exactly as it comes out of the data
logger? I'm having an issue with wind direction using an ultrasonic
anemometer. I understand when there is no wind, it probably can't give a
direction (but seems to end up defaulting to 360), but even when there is

It "looks" like it's working for me, but doesn't. I get this message:
"No results returned from Weather Underground (perhaps a bad station
name??).
Publishing anyway."
It then proceeds to upload all my 5 minute obs. Only thing is, they never
show up on wunderground.

Hi Leon,
I'm using 3.9.2, which I believe is the latest of the 3.x series.

Definitely does cause weewx to fail. Keep in mind that we are adding the
key to version 3.x, not 4, then running the wunderfixer pointing at our old
weewx.conf file.

Even today, I can't get weewx to upload data to WU reliably using https.
I'm using http and it's working fine. I've read that many people have been
able to switch back. Not me.
