    Hi all,

    I have set up a weather website called Irish Weather Online - www.irishweatheronline.com

    I got bored so decided to do a 3-hr crash course on html and css coding. :o

    MT is kindly providing his forecast for the site. The long range forecast also includes an interactive weather widget provided by Ennis-based Nowcasting.

    I only started the site this morning so I have a lot of work to do yet. It's low on content at present but I would appreciate it if you could check back whenever you can. I plan to add a webcam section as well as a surf report section.

    Don't forget also to check out the twitter and facebook sites.

    And of course, boards.ie is linked on the homepage. Anyone who wants a weather related link added is welcome to PM me. Tyhe same applies to anyone who has any pics or videos. I could do with some to help populate the site so please do send them on.

    Thanks in advance boardsies.

    Wolfe

    Congrats on the new site Wolfe. Looks very good, have set up my own weather website for Waterford recently and know how much is involved and the how time consuming it is. Best of luck with it for the future.

    If you need any help at all I would be more than willing to help.

    I'm a web designer / developer with a very keen interest in weather (NOOB)

    Goodluck though with the site! Have it set as a secondary homepage :)

    I dont know how you can actually do this in 3 hours as a beginner to webdesigner!! I always wanted to try set it up myself. Great stuff there eg colour scheme is perfect for the theme and the pictures etc - I should try do the same in my own area of interest someday. keep it up.

    Thanks Paws. It was the template that did most of the work if the truth be told. All i really did after that was replace factory settings with my own 'section' titles, html widgets etc.

    Thanks delw. Intend doing so. Have started off a section in side bar for such links and putting them into categories. So far i have pages for earthquakes, ski reports and observation stations around ireland. Rather than have traffic leave the site from a long list of links i will incorporate them into the various categories and subpages.
