Thanks for the suggestion.  It does look like a unique and interesting service.  The upload API can be found here:

https://stations.windguru.cz/upload_api.php (https://stations.windguru.cz/upload_api.php)

It uses a HTTP get request which Weather Underground started with and many other weather data upload services adopted.  They added a welcome feature of encrypting your user name and password to avoid snoopers.

It used to be within the realm of an AppleScript to submit data to a service like this before Apple made using AppleScript so difficult.  It would not be a difficult service for Stu to add, but I suspect there are many more pressing upgrade needs for WeatherCat at this time.

No worries!  The message got through!  Sadly, thanks to texting, many native English speakers are not as clear as you are!  :o

Cheers, Edouard
