[František Slimařík]

Hello, 

can you gimme small hint what should be checked in cheetah template after updated to version 4.6.2? I am using python3 and after update all templates works fine except main one. Unfortunately for me I made much of customizations there so I ´d like to know to which part I should focus mainly :)

Ok, I found the issue. I was using following extension  vinceskahan/vds-weewx-lastrain-extension: extension for weewx to generate some lastrain timestamps and delta time reports (github.com) which was updated recently for version 4.6.0. But I found also another interesting thing, following tags are shown as N/A instead of value:

$current.windGustDir.ordinal_compass
$day.wind.gustdir.ordinal_compass

Following tag is OK:
$current.windDir.ordinal_compass

I am using observer driver.

OK, I see windGust issue is already discussed/solved here: https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/9N8gg44u8Q0/m/BjKbIuvcBQAJ

So all issues solved :)
