Been granted a couple of month hiatus from babysitting, and my thoughts have turned to updating the weather system to newer releases of the php's and routines. I'd like to do the alt. dashboard V6 upgrade, but have a few questions lingering from a year ago when I thought about it.
First off, I have a limited station, no solar readings, no on-site uv readings - I use the get-uv.php routines for forecasts of this, my AQI setup does not show actuals, only the forecast and I Use the aqi php's (county doesn't post actuals).
My initial questions are --
1 - UV Readings - is there a way to use the values returned by the getuvforecast.php in the Alt. Dashboard? I don't have any capability to gen my own.
2 - AQI - Similarly, is there a way to use the aqi forecast for (today) in the alt. Dashboard.
3 - Lightning strikes - no capability for this, can it be deleted/not used and replaced with 'something else'?
4 - Cloud cover - again, no capability, an can 'somethin else' be slotted in this area?
5 - any BTDT advice from members who've taken the Alt. Dashboard V6 and mod'd it downward a bit to reflect their own smaller setups?
I'm going to d/l anew the routines from Websterweather this week, unpack and take a gander, but thought I'd ask my obvious neophyte questions first.
Thanks So much
Ken
