You can install phpLiteAdmin (the significant part of that name is in the middle) to read (you can display the whole table very easily) and edit (via a friendly GUI) either, or both, of those SQLite databases.
 
Install it using <tt>sudo apt install phpliteadmin</tt>. You will need to follow the instructions in '''/usr/share/phpliteadmin/phpliteadmin.php''' to change the password, and to define the path to the database you want to read, as both databases have the wrong extension to be found automatically. You may need to change file permissions.
 
I find the admin interface is not reliable for updating the weather diary; it often fails to store an update, without giving any error either on the editing screen or in the MXDiags file. So, I prefer to use phpliteadmin for making changes to the Weather Diary database now. I can use it from a browser on any of my devices.
