I'm been toying around with weewx and having it work with Wunderground but not sending CWOP data. Checked out Cumulus MX but it doesn't seem current...? Is there any other good software, free or paid, that works well on the latest RPi3 with Raspbian Jessie?
Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day.

Can't imagine what you mean? The latest version of CuMX is barely 8 weeks old. See last post at:

Care to explain further?

My mistake then, must have been looking at something old or just misread. Maybe I'll try to get that working on the pi... has any testing been done on the rpi3 with jessie?

Tons.  A simple Google search reveals all sorts of wx stations doing this; lots of instructions to boot.  Example: http://www.meteocercal.info/forum/Thread-Software-CumulusMX-Automated-Backups  Plus a search of THIS forum reveals many threads on RPi and CMX
