I changed Fitzweather up a bit and put it into a wordpress.org format to make it look a little more professional. Though you cant use scripts and such, it suits my needs pretty well! Very Happy

Any questions, comments, or criticisms would be greatly appreciated! Cool

I know this is nitpicky; you might want to indicate that the high designation was the only the second time in a day 2 forecast it was ever released.  They've done high many times in day 1 forecasts.

Looks nice.

But you probably shouldnt use mspaint to circle the "slight" risk area on the noaa spc outlook image using the same colour as the high risk in the legend.

So is your site hosted on wordpress.org or your own paid server? If it's hosted on your own server, there should be no problem adding a page with live conditions to it. You'd have to make a simple page containing your weather tags, upload this at regular intervals to your server then use either the <iframe> HTML tag or a plugin such as http://superthemes.org/blog/embedit-pro/ to embed it in a page on your site.

If it's hosted with wordpress.org, it may still be possible if your ISP has some free hosting space you can upload to.

Very good Joseph. You have come a long way since your first site.
Now just get that weather station and add GR3 and you it will really look good.

It's on my own server and I am going to experiment and trying adding things as I learn it, but I was wanting to create an informative site for the public in the process Smile

The good thing about wordpress is that you won't need to spend as much time styling it and getting the menubar and everything right, a few simple tables on a blank .html page with no other styling would do the trick. The site looks great.

I really like the new look!  Applause

On your maps page, something has caused the "OUTLOOK" part of "TODAY'S TORNADO OUTLOOK" to be shifted below the image, which is getting cropped.
You may consider an 'explanation' under of each the SPC images - some examples http://www.lfweathercenter.com/severe.htm

Here's another (regional) NWS radar image to consider http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/Loop/centgrtlakes_loop.gif   from  http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/centgrtlakes_lite_loop.php

Keep up the great work!
