I don't know exactly how long this has been happening as my logs only go back so many days, but I was messing around with my weather station today, and noticed this:

ERROR weewx.reportengine: Caught unrecoverable exception in generator 'user.imageStackedWindRose3.ImageStackedWindRoseGenerator'

ERROR weewx.reportengine: **** decoding Unicode is not supported

ERROR weewx.reportengine: **** Traceback (most recent call last):

ERROR weewx.reportengine: **** self.label = unicode(label, 'utf8')

ERROR weewx.reportengine: **** TypeError: decoding Unicode is not supported

I thought maybe it was due to the update I did today, but goes back further. I don't really know or can't see if something is broken on my site either.

Sean,

Looking at your testtags.php I can see you are running WeeWX v4.2.0 but due to an error in the testtags.php template I cannot tell what WeeWX-WD version you are running. Though given that imageStackedWindRose3.py was renamed to stackedwindrose.py in WeeWX-WD v2.0.0 I suspect you are running WeeWX-WD v1.x. WeeWX v1.x may work under WeeWX 4.x/python2 but I expect it will have issues under python3. I suggest you update WeeWX-WD to the the latest version, currently v2.1.2. Upgrading is fairly straightforward though there are a few manual steps involved. The upgrade instructions are in the WeeWX-WD wiki.
