Summary0002047: Suggestion: say why weather conditions aren't good

Yes, this is a good idea, also to keep a trace in the log.

Beware I am currently working on this function and at the moment it is not complete. I just add the safety actions this afternoon to allow to park and close the dome automatically.

What kind of weather device do you use? I am very interested to know how it work with the current version.

I currently use a home made one based on a raspberry pi with IR temperature sensor, 2 ambient temperature sensors, rain sensor, and camera. I'm planning to add a distance sensor so I can know when the roof is open or closed.

At the moment it seems to work ok with ccdciel. But I only connected it yesterday so it will need more weather conditions to test. At the moment it's not even worth opening the observatory.
