I'm new to WeeWx, but have been lurking for years. I've got WeeWx 4.11/Python3 configured on a machine and plan to cutover my Davis Vantage Pro station soon. Very much looking forward to using WeeWx's modern and responsive skins. Unfortunately, there are a lot of options. I would like to know if there is a recommendation from the community of one that would support:

1. Browsing several years of weather data (most seem to)
2. Weather cam images (my current page shows a time lapse of the last two hours)
3. Inserted local radar image

Here is my current page:

I'd love to have:
1. Forecast on the page support
2. Mobile app

Leaning toward Belchertown or weewx-Weather34. Any hints or suggestions to narrow my choices, would be appreciated.

Hi David,

As the maintainer of Weather34 I guess I have a vested interest here :-)

However, why not install them both? I have Belchertown installed as well, it’s an excellent skin although I don’t use MQTT with it as I have an alternative means of accessing live data. At least that way you will have a direct comparison on which serves your needs best.

Part of the fun is creating your own page - don't let yourself be limited to running only pre-canned ones.
