Ah, thanks for that. Should have been able to figure that out myself. 

However, I just tried to upgrade using these commands:
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install weewx

And was informed that 3.9.2 is the latest version!

Does this mean I have to download the .tar and do it manually? I'm not too 
confident I can pull that off...
