weewx-conditions

This extension provides structured weather Conditions data exports designed for automation, dashboards, and external systems. Instead of just generating static HTML pages, it produces lightweight, machine-friendly JSON outputs that can be used by smartphone apps, dynamic front ends, APIs, and integration layers like AlpacaBridge.

Key outputs include real-time conditions, daily/weekly/monthly summaries, and time-series datasets that map directly to your WeeWX archive.Ideal for anyone building live systems or custom visualizations on top of their weather station.

weewx-sqm

Add native support for SQM-LE (Ethernet) sky quality meters directly into WeeWX. This service polls an SQM-LE device over TCP, augments WeeWX loop packets with SQM data, and archives median sky brightness measurements for each interval. It also computes useful derived metrics like NELM, NSU, and cd/m² — with optional solar/lunar context — making sky quality a first-class citizen in your weather data.
