Last night the display for our commercial weather station started making a fan noise. The thing is it has no fan. I couldn’t fix it so I ordered a replacement.
Though the station is COTS I run FOSS software called WeeWX which grabs the data in real time and stores it in a database on a BMAX running Linux Mint. The BMAX then serves up weather data to other displays I built for use around the house.
