Hallo Together,

i am Running WeeWX version 4.1.1. When i take a look at the datas for Moonrise and moonset, it seams to be strange, Moonrise: 06:11:23 and Moonset: 21:22:48. In this cases i could just change the Lable, but highest point of the moon at 13:56:18is not to solve with changing the lable. I have taken a look at som stations around, i found no one with the right lable. Anybody an idea whats to do to solve this problem?

Best wishes

Hans

what makes you think something is wrong?? I just checked nicosia (cyprus) with my weewx station and another website and we have moonrise at 6am and moonset at 8pm at the moment.

OK, then ei do not understand the meaning, for me, the moon is rising in the evenening and moonset is in the moment, as i was writing, it seams strange to me to that moonrise is in the morning, but may be i do not understand it.

You cannot often see the moon during the daytime - so when it rises in the nmorning you tend not to see it
