Topic: rtldavis below zero temperatures

[RunnerDan]

Hi.

If this has already been answered, I apologize ahead of time, but I haven't been able to find a clear answer by searching.

I'm running weewx v.4.9.1 on a Raspberry Pi 4B, reading data from my Davis wireless VP2 via rtldavis v.0.15.

Everything had been working fine for the past month or so until yesterday evening when the outside temperature dropped below zero.  I see that some time ago this issue was recognized (https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=36267.msg372221#msg372221), so I think I must not be using the best version of rtldavis.  But I'm having trouble determining which one I should be using.  I see the github lheijst / rtldavis version (which I think is what I have) with lots of forks and a lheijst / weewx-rtldavis version...

If I could get some direction on what would be the best one I should be using that would be awesome!

Thanks!
- Dan

You may have a look at the following issue, listed in rtldavis GitHub issues section : https://github.com/lheijst/weewx-rtldavis/issues/14    , and try the proposed code modifications .

Awesome!  Thanks!  I'll take a look at that.  I wonder what it takes to get this rolled out into the regular github package.  I saw that this issue was identified by Luc about 3 years ago, but it still seems to be a problem in the normal package...
