Looks good.

The only things I see that need to be corrected is the spelling "Forcats" should be Forecasts and "Ephéméride du jour" should be ???
The word "Templatel" seems to have a extra letter.
(I'm getting to be an old guy so my French is of no help)

Many thanks for your effort,
Hal

Hi Jaques,

Dates etc, shouldn't be an issue if using the standard Cumulus webtags to populate the data.
'Infos' tab at the top should be 'Info' (I prefer 'About')

Looks very polished. Nice.

Hi Jacques

Looking good, I noted the following...

Today page
Current Wet/Dry Spell: I would add units after the numbers, eg "3 days"

Pressure: Remove the (SL) after the descriptions...
"High Pressure (SL)" -> "High Pressure"
..but add it into the title bar...
"Pressure" -> "Pressure (sea level)"

Yesterday page
Wind bearing value is missing the ° symbol
Pressure: as Today page

Month page
Temperature: "Highest Daily Range" -> "Largest Daily Range" (personal preference, others may disagree)
Temperature: "Lowest Daily Range" -> "Smallest Daily Range" (presonal preference)
Rainfall: "Plus longue période de pluie" needs to be translated
Pressure: as Today page.

Year page
Temperature: "Highest Daily Range" -> "Largest Daily Range" (personal preference, others may disagree)
Temperature: "Lowest Daily Range" -> "Smallest Daily Range" (presonal preference)
Pressure: as Today page

Records page
Temperature: "Highest Daily Range" -> "Largest Daily Range" (personal preference, others may disagree)
Temperature: "Lowest Daily Range" -> "Smallest Daily Range" (presonal preference)
Pressure: as Today page

Gauges page
Mouseovers on most gauges are broken. OK on the 3 righthand gauges.

Graphs page
"These graphs present temperature, pressure, rainfall, and wind speed trends for the last 12 hours.": Is the figure "12" a variable or hard coded?

Menu System
Month tooltip: "This month observations" -> "This months observations"
Year tooltip: "Observations since january's 1st" -> "Observations since 1st January"
Trends tooltip: "Last hours variations" -> "Recent trends"
