Re: [weewx-user] Having problems with weewx not wrighting all the rain into reports.

[Rich Bell]

I agree it looks like WeeWX is getting the information. The line below is logged right before the loop packet is generated. This should be seen in the 1697833200 archive record. So no rain.
Oct 20 16:15:02 zero-wx weewx[579] DEBUG user.MQTTSubscribe: (Driver) data-> final loop packet is enviro/river-wx 2023-10-20 16:15:00 EDT (1697832900): 'dateTime': '1697832900.6921751', 'luminance': '171.37', 'outHumidity': '77.89', 'outTemp': '13.52', 'pressure': '936.97', 'rain': '0.0', 'usUnits': '17', 'windDir': '45.0', 'windSpeed': '0.0'

The line below is logged right before the loop packet is generated. This should be seen in the next archive record. So 2.514 mm or .099 in.
Oct 20 16:20:00 zero-wx weewx[579] DEBUG user.MQTTSubscribe: (Driver) data-> final loop packet is enviro/river-wx 2023-10-20 16:20:00 EDT (1697833200): 'dateTime': '1697833200.808235', 'luminance': '82.25', 'outHumidity': '77.04', 'outTemp': '13.6', 'pressure': '937.04', 'rain': '2.5146', 'usUnits': '17', 'windDir': '45.0', 'windSpeed': '2.12127'

The next thing to try is, run WeeWX from the command line. This will print the loop packets and archive records to the console.

Out of curiosity, what are the values in the database? Do the other observations look correct?

Thanks Rich , All the other observations are good, I don't know how to look at the database, I do have sqlite installed however  I'm a newbie at this.

[kufuu]

I did load DB Browser and seen that the 1697832900 packet did not record the rain in the db.

[kufuu]

I completely removed weewx from the pi zero and reloaded it, It seems to have cleared up 2 problems I had, its writing to the to the db every reading now and the rain is being recorded, Ill have to see when we get some rain if that holds out.

[kufuu]

Ok, this is what I found happening, the other day when I reset the weather station pico enviro weather it was sending the payload at 5 min intervals example 20:06:09 and it was writing to db and sending the data to weather underground every reading, now the clock resets ever so often on the weather station and now its example 20:05:09 and its only recording and sending to WU every other reading. weewx is up to date and running on a pi zero w. Any clues ? Heres a copy of the log

The short answer is that your archive_interval is too short for how frequently the weather data is published. In the snippet below you can infer that the weather data is published every 5 minutes and the archive_interval is probably also 5 minutes. This is resulting in some archival intervals not receiving a loop packet.

data-> final loop packet is enviro/river-wx 2023-10-30 19:00:09 EDT

data-> final loop packet is enviro/river-wx 2023-10-30 19:05:09 EDT

Note, this is a greatly simplified explanation. WeeWX uses the received loop packet, archive_interval, and archive_delay to determine when to create an archive record from the received loop packets.

Net, either publish the data more frequently or increase your archive_interval.

I enabled rapidfire for WU and its sending out the data every reading now, as far as the season skin every other packet, I can live with that unless its not writing to the DB, I ll have to wait and see about the rain if its working right.  Thanks again

You might have pain running rapidfire on a pi zero due to how slow it is.

See some of the comparative benchmarks at https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/Benchmarks-of-file-and-image-generation for details.

I did a rain test, weewx is getting the payload and it didnt write it to the db or send it to WU

Im thinking that on mqtt that rapidfire is only going to post what it gets, Rich I increased the archive_interval to 360 and it has been posting every reading now, even tipped the rain and it recorded it to WU and to the db. will keep an eye on it to see if that stays. thks you guys

[kufuu]

Update , The weather station payloads can only be set to 5-10-15- 30min intervals, the pi enviro weather goes into a deep sleep for battery conservation, I have this one on 5min and on the pi zero, rapidfire only send to WU when it gets the payload. Everything is working great so far, just have some solar issues and need to re adjust the rain count. thanks again
