I've updated the .zip file in the first post in this thread with Version 3.10.  Jasiu's great solution was what was needed.  - Jim

If you mean in the check-fetch-times.php?show=versions Version checker for the Saratoga template set, then sorry, no.  Jim's script set is an addon that is not distributed by me in the Base distribution.  Like many addon scripts, you'll need to keep following the postings here or other mechanisms like twitter feeds by the author of the addon script for update notifications.

Thanks for your work on this. Would you be interested in doing some open source best practices, such as publishing this code in a GitHub repository and Composer package? I have experience with this and would be happy to help.

First of all, I am saddened to hear about Jim McMurray. He was always willing to help anyone having issues with their code and websites. He will be missed.

I am in the process of getting my new website up and running after a move to Idaho from Nevada. At the moment, I am working on WXSTORY. It is running but I am getting intermittent error messages as shown below:

     Deprecated: Implicit conversion from float 393.75 to int loses precision in /homepages/10/d942756231/htdocs/wxStory_inc.php on line 708
     Deprecated: Implicit conversion from float 393.75 to int loses precision in /homepages/10/d942756231/htdocs/wxStory_inc.php on line 709

If I refresh the page the error goes away and sometimes the error does not show but it is unpredictable. Am wondering if it has something to o with the cache data. Any thoughts or suggestion on the matter would be appreciated.

Been a while since I checked on status of those absent offices... looks like San Francisco and Seattle have now joined the wxStory communities.

Just downloaded this and it does not seem to have a wxstory.php file.  What did I mess up? :)

Hi All,

Guess that Hawaii, Alaska and other US Territories are still not doing this.

How or who can I ask to see if the NWS office will be able to include a Story?

What if, they are interested to do this, as to where and what they will put the story info?

Any suggestions or recommendations welcome.

Happy Holidays and stay safe and healthy,

Aloha,

They are all on the home page of the WFO's.  The MIC of the office would be a good one to contact.

WTF? IDK WYS.

I don't know what a WFO or MIC is from this conversation.

I know many might mumble these short forms in their sleep, but those seeking help may benefit from fully spelled out phrases and also an example if the responder has time.

And to update Silversword, Hawai'i and Alaska are now states, so they shouldn't be grouped as other US Territories.  Yeah, my 8th grade grammar teacher still haunts me at night.

One thing about programming and station adjustments, a single character or space can have a whole different meaning, so I hope the help provided will be accurate and concise.

I know a doctor who says that when a patient has an "MI" he spells it out since that could be shorthand for Myocardial Infarction or Mitral Insufficiency.  Same initials, vastly different meanings for the patient.

I see Jim's station is now been truly offline on the Blitzortung site.  For some months after his sad passing it still was being used to locate strikes and I was happy that someone in the family kept the power on and the antenna connected.  It's possible that the equipment isn't even there any more (Cutty may know, or Greg) but as was hinted in this thread, he was an amazingly helpful and patient person in helping others get into the hobby.

Keep on enjoying, folks.

Hi All,

Thanks Dale for my comment for places that I mentioned.

My bad in grammar mention the States of Hawaii and Alaska and other U.S. Territories. One word can make a difference.

Anyway, I hope that our WFO will be able to create something here for visitors.

Have a good safe and stay healthy for this Holiday Season.

Aloha,

I know.  In my previous life I worked with a lot of documents which bordered on legal, and we would try to write carefully and the old habit is hard to leave behind (that plus my thickening arteries above the collar bone don't always jump to the obvious and need concrete examples!)

I think this is why, when Python computer language is touted as being a great one to learn in grade school, that I'm pulling my hair out with studying for years and not being able to program or find the mistakes in other's work.  One person's clarity is another's confusion.

Peace and enjoy the weather, no matter where (it's snowing here right now, but wet chilly stuff).Dale
