[weewx-user] Problem with Cheetah search_list_extensions?

2020-12-17 Thread Michael Bruski
Hi all, I've been trying for a few weeks now (on-off) to get Daniel Macias's METAR extension working on my WeeWX setup but not having any success. I'm running WeeWX v4.2.0 on an RPi0W with RaspIOS Buster. I did a full system install so WeeWx configs and skins are in /etc/weewx. Dec 17 20:31:

I posted a simple mod on here about two years ago that allows you to pull the AFM vice the PFM which will give you a more accurate forecast for your local area than a PFM will provide in most cases. On Sun, Jul 10, 2022, 07:47 wrote: > weewx-user@googlegroups.com >

[weewx-user] Parsing some NWS Area Forecast Matrices fails

Hi all, First of all, I am running WeeWX 4.1.1 with forecast extension 3.4.0b10. I had recently managed to use a Area Forecast Matrix for one location and that is working fine. Recently I tried to setup a second location to use the AFM (different LID and FOID) and it fails to get a forecast

[weewx-user] Solution to some AFM forecast matrices fail to parse

Okay all. Here is a working solution to the problem I encountered trying to exploit Area Forecast Matrices for generating a forecast_table in WeeWX. Background. If you live in an area served by a moderately sized or larger airport, the NWS most likely generates a Point Forecast Matrix (PFM) that

MEZ024 is in that page twice with two different locations and elevations posted? Perhaps the forecast office made a mistake and one is a typo. You can go to very bottom of the page and send an e-mail to the NWS Internet Services Team to report that. On Monday, November 2, 2020 at 12:45:13 A

orted there. If that is the location you want a forecast for, you may need to make a mod to your forecast.py in order to get that. See my previous post about that mod. On Monday, November 2, 2020 at 7:09:36 AM UTC-5 Michael Bruski wrote: > > MEZ024 is in that page twice with tw
