NOAA Reports Blank

[Kenny Stier]

WeeWX is generating blank NOAA reports for me.

In the Belchertown Q&A, it says you may have to give it a few archive intervals to populate. I waited three months and am now sure it doesn't work :D

Any ideas are appreciated!

can you attach your skin file for belchertown and also seasons.  which skin should be generating the noaa reports?  is the noaa report being generated with no data inside or is it not being generated at all.  Check the date and time of the latest noaa file.

Hi,

I'll wager you are using WeeWX 3.x and are (still) having barometer/pressure problems? If so you are likely suffering from this issue. In a nutshell the 3.x and earlier NOAA reports require that a given day or month have barometer data before that day or months data is displayed in the NOAA format report. So no barometer data means no day/month tabular data in the NOAA reports. If you look at your reports closely you will see the summary data at the bottom of each table is there and correct so the reports are being produced just with no tabular data. The issue is fixed in WeeWX 4.0.

How to fix, you have a few options depending on how important it is to you and your skills:

1. Do nothing (easiest)

2. Wait until WeeWX 4.0 is released and upgrade (next easiest)

3. Install the current 4.0 beta (if your git skills are up to it)

4. Fix your install so that you have barometer data :) (probably more of a challenge)

5. Pull down the updated NOAA template files from GitHub. (easier than installing the current beta and will definitely fix your Seasons skin NOAA reports but I cannot speak for Belchertown NOAA reports)

The barometer issue was it.

I am using an Acurite 5-in-1 over SDR and it doesn't include pressure data.

I was able to add pressure data using a BME280 https://gitlab.com/wjcarpenter/bme280wx and now the reports generate great!
