Can Linux or anything other than Windows run software that reads my personal weather station then sends the data to NOAA, Weather underground and others?

Nope!

W10 works great for Mrs p6 and me.

So did 98, XP, 7, 8, and 8.1.

Right now I’m looking at a Windows tablet to replace my old XP desktop that I pushed as far as it could go. Had a great 10 year or more run with no problems.
