According to some old posts posts on the forum from an Weewx user, seems that Weewx occasionally also read some values from the Data Logger (all other softwares I know, only do it at start-up, and just if the Use Data Logger option is enabled). So, its possible that there is relation, because if the weather station clock is wrong, the records stored on the hardware Data Logger will have a wrong timestamp.
I hope this issue was definitively fixed on v7.0 b008 (2018-10-30).
I'm testing it during the last 2 hours, forcing NTP updates and RTC syncs at each 10 secs, and even when the NTP update fails (which was causing the issue) the date and time remains correct.
Please give it a try and report back. Thanks.
