A new weather.gov is coming.

[Paul R Anderson]

Sorry Off-topic, But I believe this might be interesting to some WeeWx users. This was announced back in June of this year, when NWS was making some other changes, but I only recently stumbled across it. 

Quote from US National Weather Service:

  The United States National Weather Service is creating a new, contemporary tool for anyone, anywhere in the U.S. to check their forecast and learn about hazardous weather on the way.

  Over the next few years, we are working towards a site that will be:
    One cohesive experience
    Easy to navigate and understand from any device
    Accessible to all users, regardless of location, wealth, education, age, or ability
    Available in more languages
    A valuable resource for the public, as well as partners of the National Weather Service

You can find a beta version of the new site at:

 beta.weather.gov

I guess I'd better get my buns in gear. I have a Web page that puts a
little lipstick on the pig that is the old NWS site, which was badly in
need of a woke overhaul.

I rewrote my page over the summer. It amounts to about 6500 lines
of *python* scripting. Maybe I'll need to do more (or a lot less) with
the new site.
