Hey Dave, thanks for this! I am still on v4.8 and seems like I should update eventually. I will update my config above as soon as I tested it. Will link yours in the meantime.
In that case here’s the full config for anyone who might find it useful. Note that I’ve commented out some entries that my setup doesn’t have, and also added some new ones for various soil sensor readings.
There’s also a few where WeeWX provides the data but it’s not coming through via MQTT, e.g. wind direction and wind gust, I need to play with that, probably by setting the retained flag on the messages if that’s where the problem lies.
Another note, for the WeeWX integration I’m using Michael Schantl’s WeeWX-MQTT, so this may also depend on which WeeWX extension you’re using to get the data into mosquitto.

I just noticed, from a comment on Matthew Wall’s WeeWX-MQTT, that you may be using that instead of Michael Schantl’s one. So the naming difference may be due to the different code base… both of them are a bit of a headache, they were written for now out-of-date versions of WeeWX and paho-mqtt and it looks like neither are taking updates. I went with the MS version rather than the MW version because it was easier to get going with WeeWX 5.x and HA, but it doesn’t seem to honour the persistence flag, possibly because the version of paho-mqtt it’s using is too old to support it.
In the interests of sacrifice for the communal good 
I’ve uninstalled the MS WeeWX-MQTT and instead installed the MW WeeWX-MQTT, which exposes the missing topics. So you need a different HA YAML config depending on whether you use the MS WeeWX-MQTT or the MW WeeWX-MQTT.
For those just joining us, there are two things called WeeWX-MQTT, one by Michael Schantl (MS), one by Matthew Wall (MW). Both date from about the same time and haven’t been updated for awhile, which means they’re tied to old versions of the paho-mqtt library so you’ll need to pip install paho-mqtt==$old_version, as well as change the install command from wee_extension --install to weectl extension install for WeeWX 5.x.
In terms of which one to go with, MW-WeeWX-MQTT is slightly more configurable than MS-WeeWX-MQTT, as well as exposing a few more topics (actually synthetic topics like rainfall in the last 24 hours). For that one the paho-mqtt version needed is 1.6.1, so pip install paho-mqtt==1.6.1.
Here’s the final updated config, currently set up for MW WeeWX-MQTT but with comments indicating what to change for MS WeeWX-MQTT, there are also comments for other sensors/topics that have special considerations. This also includes soil/leaf sensors if you have those.
Tested to work with WeeWX 5.x up to the latest release, 5.1.0, with credit to @ThomDietrich whose work this is based on.
