WeatherCat Web Templates / Re: New Saratoga AJAX/PHP template plugin for WeatherCat now available
« Last post by saratogaWX on July 02, 2026, 02:06:35 PM »
I've installed WeatherCat (V3.33, Build 20 (64 bit/Universal)) on a new iMac M1 Mini (refurbished) on macOS Tahoe 26.5.2 for testing and surprisingly, the WCT-plugin from 2013 still works.  Only one change for PHP 8.4+ is wxjournal.php V1.01.  I had to replace the "e" modifier in a preg_replace() to be a preg_replace_callback() function instead as the "e" modifier was deprecated in PHP.

The functioning site is now at https://saratoga-weather.org/WCAT/wxindex.php and the WeatherCat plugin is back to full support.

Best regards,
Ken

Hi Stu,

I also have a Weatherflow Tempest station. It would be great to have WeatherCat support it, I would set it up as an additional station for the lightning data.

Thank you for your continued support of WeatherCat, I started using it in 2017 on version 2 and it has worked flawlessly. I'm looking forward to WeatherCat 4 when it is released.

Thanks you for your kind comments! Good to know V4 is going ok for you.

And yes, I'd be happy to support it if there's enough interest.

If anyone else is interested, please post in this thread.

Cheers,
Stu.

Hi,

Thank you Stu for continuing development of WeatherCat!
I have also used WeatherCat from version 1 to 3 and now have tested version 4. So far nothing to report, everything is running smoothly with my Mac Mini 2012.

I have one request, have you thought about supporting weatherflow tempest station? I think it should be pretty easy to get local udp driver working with it...
Here is documentation https://weatherflow.github.io/Tempest/api/udp/v171/

Thank you!

It's amazing these scripts still work with so little attention after all these years!

I was just thinking the same thing. I looked on Github and thought it's been a long time since you had to adjust anything. And I get lots of compliments. Someone told me the gauges are way better than what the local television stations put on on their mobile apps. So thank you for your valuable contributions to WeatherCat users, especially as you are not a WeatherCatter yourself.

Thank you for the link to the website. However, I don't think I will stay up to witness the solstice at 02:24 in the morning.

Dear WeatherCat observers of the seasons turning, . . . . 

We are posed on another transition.  For most of you, the summer solstice will be happening sometime between this post and the end of the day tomorrow.  You'll find the exact time in your time zone on this handy webpage:

https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20260621T0824&msg=June%20solstice%202026

The start of summer is a hopeful time and I have photo is that spirit:



Hopefully the weather remains mostly tranquil for the moment.  Only time will tell how this summer unfolds.

Thank you VERY MUCH for sorting me out. I made the change and am happy again. Love these gauges.

It's happening because there is not enough space on gauges area of the page to display the pop-up chart and the cursor by its side. The cursor is place over the chart, which means it is no longer over the gauge, so the chart is hidden - rinse and repeat!

Two options:
1. Reduce the displayed size of the charts.
2. Change the position of the cursor relative to the chart so it no longer overlays it.

Option 2: By default the cursor is 30 pixels down by the side of teh charts, change so that it is always slightly above the chart...

gauges.js, line 4242
Code: [Select]
Change...

    tooltipoffsets: [20, -30], // additional x and y offset from mouse cursor for tooltips

to...

    tooltipoffsets: [20, 10], // additional x and y offset from mouse cursor for tooltips
