Logging the weather
I have modified the script that runs every 10 minutes to record the output from the ansiweather utility, This still saves the output to a file but adds the current date to the file name.
now=$(date +"%m_%d_%Y")
echo "Filename : /nas/backup_$weather.csv"
echo $(date "+ %D, %T"), $(ansiweather -l Paignton -a false) >> weather_$now.csv
So the output looks like
Humidity: 71% - Pressure: 1023 hPa
06/09/25, 14:20:01, Weather in Paignton: 18 °C - UVI: 7.03 - Wind: 1.79 m/s WSW - Humidity: 69% - Pressure: 1024 hPa
06/09/25, 14:30:01, Weather in Paignton: 18 °C - UVI: 7.03 - Wind: 2.24 m/s SW - Humidity: 70% - Pressure: 1023 hPa
06/09/25, 14:40:01, Weather in Paignton: 18 °C - UVI: 7.03 - Wind: 3.13 m/s W - Humidity: 69% - Pressure: 1023 hPa
06/09/25, 14:50:01, Weather in Paignton: 18 °C - UVI: 7.03 - Wind: 1.79 m/s SW - Humidity: 69% - Pressure: 1023 hPa
06/09/25, 15:00:01, Weather in Paignton: 18 °C - UVI: 7.03 - Wind: 1.79 m/s WSW - Humidity: 71% - Pressure: 1023 hPa
06/09/25, 15:10:01, Weather in Paignton: 18 °C - UVI: 7.03 - Wind: 1.34 m/s SSW - Humidity: 71% - Pressure: 1024 hPa
As this runs on a headless pi4, I can login and copy the data files locally before uploading to my gopherspace (Look it up)
