Update: I applied the wxxtypes.py patch described here : https://github.com/weewx/weewx/commit/9dc4da86a260f01d8792ac93d12871a05bff572d?diff=unified This should replace any missing LOOP windGustDir by windDir values. Still no Gust speed/dir recorded in DB after applying this patch. I also tried patch together with removal of the [[Corrections]] windGustDir = windDir if windDir is not None else None I also tried patch with and without [[Calculations]]windGustDir = software
No luck so far. Any help most appreciated.
