I am a complete noob so please be gentle 
I have a NodeMCU V3 and my first project is to try and build a weather station.
After reading a number of tutorials I decided that a BMP280 appeared to be a perfect component for my project as it can supply temperature, barometric pressure and humidity information.
I am using the following example sketch:
I have connected SDA to D3 and SCL to D4 and it just reports that it cannot find the sensor.
Can anyone offer any help please? It would be very much appreciated!
