Monthly NOAA file's first creation

[WindnFog]

Is the NOAA-YYYY-01.txt file created with one data line on the first loop of weewx following the date change at midnight?  I ask because Linux's atime, mtime, and ctime on that file all seem to be the same, implying it's re-created each loop (typically every 5 minutes.)

Not sure exactly what you're asking, but the most current NOAA file is recreated after every archive record. So, for the first of the month, a new file will be created. at 0005, then recreated every 5 minutes after that.

Does that help?

That's exactly what I meant, Tom, and what I suspected.  Thanks for the quick reply.
