Default A site on the weather

Finally finished moving my site over the Hostgator, just waiting for the domain to propagate.

I run a site on the weather (of all things). The site is based in Canada, and we provide forecasts, charts, photo galleries and a load of other things. We also have a two month old community, so far we have 180 members, many from around Canada, but also a number from other parts of the world.

I know to most, the weather is incredibly boring, but check out the community and you will that some people actually enjoy talking about it, some are even completely obsessed with it. We have members from all walks of life, from guys who work in meteorology (NWS, EC, UKmet, NHC), to folks who are unemployed but enjoy the weather.

Thanks.

Nice site with a lot of info!
Good integration of the forum and Gallery.
One funct. remark: in IE and FireFox the main menu at the top is shifted to the left.

Thanks for pointing that out Stef, I have yet to check it out with Firefox having just re-installed windows 2000 on this machine.

Very nice site!

I am in the process of installing a Davis Vantage Pro at my school. Once installed, I intend to post the data on the web. I am also going to link it to the amateur radio APRS network.

Davis are excellent, my next model will be the Vantage pro, I just need to save some more pennies first!!

I`m currently using an Oregon, whic is great until winter where by it struggles when our temps drop below -30C, suffice to say I do not record many winter lows!!

A lot of our community members have their own stations, and often post their obs in the forum. One of my admins is from Queensland, quite amazing when he posts his obs `Today`s high reached 43C` , but of course it`s spring down there.
