Weather sites are dynamic. They have data that changes, sometimes from refresh to refresh. I like to see current information, whether it's conditions, forecast, radar, satellite, "above the fold" when I hit a page.

Your site is beautifully laid out. However, the home page is static except for the isobar map. I would move that introductory text to an "About Us" page, and reduce the size of the banner images to pull the important content more up above the bottom of the screen.

(Having said that, I realized that work I did today on my site made me guilty of some of that. Funny how it sneaks up on you. Time to rethink my layout...)

Thank you, i have been trying to get latest observations from my weather station on to my site, from a program called cumulus. i have read the help page on how to get it online but it seems very complicated

You are welcome to ask for help with Cumulus here in the Cumulus board, or you can join http://sandaysoft.com/forum/ (the official Cumulus support forum) and ask for help there.

I use Cumulus and can give you some help with the settings.

Your website looks nice, BTW.
