Just a query with regards to the updated restx.py file for sending data to WOW-BE. When reporting pressure using "barometer", shouldn't the respective WOW-BE field be "baromin" instead of "absbaromin"? According the the WOW-BE site: "*baromin = relative pressure (i.e. pressure reduced to sea level)* and *absbaromin = absolute pressure (i.e. the raw pressure measurement at the station’s location)*." So for reporting pressure: - weewx parameter "barometer" corresponds to the field "baromin" in WOW-BE - weewx parameter "pressure" corresponds to the field "absbaromin" in WOE-BE May be I'm wrong, but since I modified the code to report "barometer" as "baromin" the reported pressure now seems to be correct (before the change they were abnormally high). I have a Davis Vantage Pro 2 so it makes sense for me to report "barometer" pressure since this is what is provided by the weather station.
