Hi from Long Sutton, Lincs, UK

I have for a while been running a Fineoffset USB weather station with a Raspberry Pi. I decided to go for something a ?bit more substantial ? and went for a Davis Vantage Pro 2 and a Mac Mini.

Of course the software is Weathercat (otherwise I wouldn?t be here)

I am just starting to get to grips with Weathercat.

My website is at https://www.wx-watch.co.uk

I want a simple website that is easy to display on my iPhone

John

We have a number of WeatherCat users with a Fine Offset station and they are surprisingly rugged for their cost.  However, I think you will very happy with the upgrade to the Davis Vantage Pro-2.

That is definitely a good start although you have probably noticed that WeatherCat has extensive webpage support.  You can develop your own pages or you can take advantage of one of the very nice templates developed for WeatherCat.  You find them listed at the top of this topic in the forum:

If you want to access your data from your iPhone there are also some iOS apps you might want to look into.  The simplest is this one:

There is now WeatherCatRCP which provides access to most of the data within WeatherCat:

Both are from the same developer and are available in the Apple iOS app store.

Once more welcome!  :)

Cheers, Edouard  [cheers1]

Hi John:

Welcome to the forum. Hope you are enjoying your new weather kit from Davis. I took a look at your website. Nicely done, mate. I have been close to your locale, I think. I was in Hull a few years ago. I think that is fairly close to you. Glad to christen you as our newest WeatherCatter.

By the way Edouard, your banner on the forum has not updated its weather information since 27 July. You need to take a spanner and fix that gear.

Okay I double-checked and WeatherCat is uploading the banner as it has since the feature was added.  [WCSmall]

The problem is our browsers once more sticking to an out-of-date cached image instead of the current one.  I remember something about this, but I thought Stu tried to fix this with the SMF forum software settings and obviously didn't succeed.  I guess we will have to periodically force our browsers to reload from the server to keep our banners current.

Definitely something of an annoyance . . . .

Oh well, . . . . . Edouard
