Sorry you had to resort to that. (Re: Weather Cat version 2.4.4)

Dear N4KHQ, Blick, and WeatherCat system admins,

Probably break today after posting but WC had been sending data for about 2 weeks. Restarting the iMac automatically a 3 am has solved the problem.

I'm glad you have solved your problem in some way, but sure am sorry that you could isolate the actual cause.  Normally WeatherCat is extremely stable and some users have it running for weeks without any problems.  Alas, macOS isn't the bullet-proof UNIX platform it started out as.  It wasn't that long ago that I would have to remind myself to reboot once a month just as a precaution.  These days I really struggle to run more than 3 days before rebooting.  If rebooting my computer wasn't such a hassle I would use a scheduled rebooting scheme as you have done.

Cheers, Edouard
