Nope, one of the big benefits is that you can create your own custom schema for added databases. and that they were both being populated by instances of weewx. > Uncertain there. Typically yes, but I don't know if it's necessarily so. You could create+populate the custom db probably any way you want.

Does it really matter that much, given how small such a db would be ? Or when you say 'network accessible' are you thinking of having some external mechanism populate the snow db and you just want weewx to generate summaries and plots from that data ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
