WeeWX Weather Server

This particular set of instructions is based on building a Debian 12 based LXC under Proxmox to handle WeeWX. On my network, I have an existing WebServer & an existing Automation Server. The intent is to have the weather information served up as a web page (Default WeeWX thing...) by the WebServer and also be used by the Automation Server.

There is also a dedicated Database Server which we will be using. (can't possibly do things the easy way...)

(Based on: WeeWX: Installation on Debian-based systems)

Originally, the old version of this article was done with a much earlier version of WeeWX & our old Accurite weather station. Things have seriously changed since those days...
