Weewx Responsive Skin - Aus Forecast Extension

[Darryn Capes-Davis]

Hi All,

Long time since my last post. A few months ago I noticed that my iPhone stopped showing the BOM Forecast icons. With the change to everything needing to be HTTPS, the BOM HTTP only icons will only continue to disappear if you host the Responsive skin on HTTPS, like I do at https://carlingfordweather.sydney, and you use a modern strict browser. 

So I took time to source some weather icons and adjust and size to suit the Aus Forecast part of the Responsive skin. The changes have been push to GitHub - https://github.com/dcapslock/weewx-responsive-skin

Also included is some exception handling to mark corrupt downloaded forecast files as stale.

Regards

Yes my icons disappeared as my site is https but I changed a setting on the browser just for my site.

On chrome it is called insecure content. 

Then the icons came back again.

The forecast and the weather warning were causing the Responsive skin to crash.

Darryn has fixed the crashes and now everything is working again.

This new BOM website is taking a while to iron all the bugs out.

Thanks again Daryn. I still really like this skin for weewx.
