At the risk of jinxing it, I _think_ it might be OK now. I noticed in the logs that I was about to post that things stopped working after it made a call out to the Ambient API website. So I tried wrote a script to make random connections to the API website and about 50% of the connections failed. I fixed this issue by changing the route to the API website (I have multiple Internet connections here). My script passed all the tests and so I restarted the WeeWX daemon. Its been up now for over 24 hours.
I'm going to make contact with the ambientweatherapi.py folks and see if they know about this issue. I would have expected their script to try again or at least re-run itself when called by WeeWX? Or even do some sort of graceful termination? http://weather.ni2o.ampr.org should now be working. Thanks for your time!!
