Self-Hosting
Running your own weather server and software (WeeWX, CumulusMX, backups) and the real cost and upkeep of self-hosting a weather website.
Self-hosting means running the weather software yourself: WeeWX or CumulusMX on a Raspberry Pi or an old PC, a web server to publish the pages, and backups you remember to take. It is a fine hobby with a real cost in evenings, and the guides below are honest about both sides: what the software does well, what breaks, and what a machine in the cupboard actually costs over three years.
If you already run WeeWX or CumulusMX you do not have to choose. Pro Weather can read the same station in parallel, and it imports your existing archive, so the history you have collected comes with you instead of starting over.
