Weather Almanac ? - A challenge for you designers !

[Paul C]

I came across this website today, not sure how, but it did have something a little different which on the face of it looks a good idea.

There is a whole host of info on there which may be a good add on to Cumulus. I always like to look back on historical data and something like this may be a good addition to the Cumulus package, it will need some work no doubt. The layout at the moment isnt ideal buts its a start.

Anyone wish to have a go ? - I have a feeling that alot of the "tags" may already be in existance, but some new ones may be required.

Sorry that link I posted doesnt appear to work at the moment - anyway it looked a possibility !

There's a working page here: http://www.weather.teel.ws/almanac_Plus.htm

It appears to be generated by some Linux software called WeatherView. The main problem with doing the same with Cumulus is that currently Cumulus doesn't keep many of the statistics displayed there - mainly all those daily/weekly/etc averages, so it's not just a case of producing tags for them. It's something I can think about putting in Cumulus 2 eventually, but for now I think it would require some web programming using the realtime.txt or something.
