        I think I have solved it now, I wasn’t patient enough.

            @korina Sorry to trouble you but I seem to be having trouble again. I was successfully uploading weather from my station to windy.com

            https://www.windy.com/station/pws-f065d04a?51.284,-2.782,10

            But recently it seems to have stopped working. I went back and checked the API key and it seems to be copied correctly but when viewed in windy.com it says "error loading or rendering station data" Is there some fault finding I can do to try and rectify this?

            Thanks

              Hello, I would recommend to check the settings once again or contact the CumulusMX support.

                  The issue has been solved by the CumulusMX users forum team.

                  For the record and assistance of other Windy.com users, I understand it is because Windy uses Let's Encrypt for their SSL certificates, recently (30th Sept 2021) the Let's Encrypt R3 intermediate CA certificate they use to authenticate their client certificates expired.The rPi has not kept up with that change and still has the old intermediate CA cert. (I am no expert!). The steps I followed were as follows:

                  Updating the mozilla/DST_Root_CA_X3.crt certificate:-

                  1. Open a terminal session on the RPi

                  2. Type sudo nano /etc/ca-certificates.conf into the terminal session, look through the response and

                  3. Then type the exclamation character ! in front of the line: /mozilla/DST_Root_CA_X3.crt

                  4. Save the file: Ctrl-X, then hit y for yes

                  5. Then update the certificates by typing sudo update-ca-certificates into the terminal session

                  6. Reboot your RPi, the Windy.com upload will restart and you should see your data within an hour or so.

                  The posts from the CumulusMX forum are here and here.

                  Regards

                  Andrew
