Extreme Weather script(s)

[ace2]

btw, your site needs a parameter to switch the damn crickets off, I keep thinking there is one in the house

There is actual 2 switches as such...
1. Large speaker below top heading

2. down the bottom speaker with the words 'Turns background audio OFF/ON. **On IOS & Android, this turns audio ON/OFF**'

See...

And your lucky it wasn't windy or raining!!!!
Sounds as well as CSS change based on conditions...
It wasn't too loud was it??
I intended for them to be like a background sound......

Thanks, got it now.

The first time I selected on a country/region other than ones I had opened before it gave a warning about "No such file ..." for lines 226-229 of the script but then a reload and all is good. After a few minutes and going back to the page now any country selected display correctly, so likely just a pause in creating the extremeCache_ file. All is good now.

appologies for this belated entry. I had a similar issue, though created the /cache/extremes folder but when i looked at the values here:

Code: Select all

// Default location when this script is first started
if (!isset($_GET['extremes']) ) {
  $country    = $defaultlocation;
  $selected   = $country;
  $useunits   = 'M';
  $siteCache  = '../cache/extremes/extremesCache_'.strtolower($country).'.php';
  $stations   = $stations; // only displayed when script is first started
}
// Default location (use same options as above)
if (isset($_GET['extremes']) && $_GET['extremes'] == false) {
  $country    = $defaultlocation;
  $selected   = $country;
  $useunits   = 'M';
  $siteCache  = '../cache/extremes/extremesCache_'.strtolower($country).'.php';
  $stations   = $stations; // only displayed when script is first started
}

$key = 0;
if (isset($_GET['extremes']) && $_GET['extremes'] == true) {
  $key = array_search($_GET['extremes'], $extremesLocations);
  for ($i = 0; $i <= $key; $i++) {
    $country   = $extremesLocations[$i];
    $selected  = $country;
    $useunits  = 'M';
    $siteCache = '../cache/extremes/extremesCache_'.strtolower($country).'.php';

In my situation I had to remove one of the fullstops in the path for siteCache.

Code: Select all

// Default location when this script is first started
if (!isset($_GET['extremes']) ) {
  $country    = $defaultlocation;
  $selected   = $country;
  $useunits   = 'M';
  $siteCache  = './cache/extremes/extremesCache_'.strtolower($country).'.php';
  $stations   = $stations; // only displayed when script is first started
}
// Default location (use same options as above)
if (isset($_GET['extremes']) && $_GET['extremes'] == false) {
  $country    = $defaultlocation;
  $selected   = $country;
  $useunits   = 'M';
  $siteCache  = './cache/extremes/extremesCache_'.strtolower($country).'.php';
  $stations   = $stations; // only displayed when script is first started
}

$key = 0;
if (isset($_GET['extremes']) && $_GET['extremes'] == true) {
  $key = array_search($_GET['extremes'], $extremesLocations);
  for ($i = 0; $i <= $key; $i++) {
    $country   = $extremesLocations[$i];
    $selected  = $country;
    $useunits  = 'M';
    $siteCache = './cache/extremes/extremesCache_'.strtolower($country).'.php';

it then worked as expected without any errors onscreen. only issue however is the page fails a Valid XHTML 1.0 check.

necroposting here

This script (worldextremes.php) seem to be broken now as the ogimet website has included more fields into the equation.

https://www.ogimet.com/ranking.phtml.en

it now shows 6 headings of data. however the old wordextremes.php script only caters for 3, and thus the Maximum Precipitation fields are incorrect.

not sure if anyone has a newer version, but would appreciate any help here.

[Mapantz]

Aha

I came across that problem months ago and fixed it all up.. I actually added in more fields as well.

Feel free to grab the bits you need, or all of it.

It may need to some editing to fit your webpage.

Thanks though I cannot download the file source directly and ?sce=view doesn't seem to work with it. could you attach the file here, thanks? ps I hadn't seen this post before I had emailed you today sorry..

[alexvanuxem]

where's the link?

[water01]

where's the link?

Go to Paul's page and add ?sce=view after the .php and the source will show up.

[ConligWX]

where's the link?

https://www.conligwx.org/worldextremes.php?sce=view

Then copy and paste into your own file. Edit settings according.

PS thanks to Mapantz for this version

Hi Tony and thanks.
I have spent a bit of time this morning on the komokaweather.com site and updated the World Extremes. Most dead links are gone but still some to do, and others to re-add.

I'll be watching the Australia page for Bellenden Ker, QLD who claims they are in the highest rain total area... but the rain season still to start.
Also noticed that for Australia there is no Wind Gust data. Maybe a temporary BOM issue?

p.s. also thanks to mapantz and Simon for starting this script update.

Enjoy,
Paul

Thanks Paul,
Glad you liked it.
Just one tip, I would say you might prefer KMH in the first column rather than MPH (I defaulted it with MPH first primarily to show Simon/Mapantz).
To change yours in the settings :
From : (windUnits)

Code: Select all

// Wind Units 1=AU(Metric) or 0=USA/UK(Imperial)
$windUnits          = 0; // added for displaying Both KMH and MPH
$defaultUnits       = 1; // added for displaying Both (Metric) and (Imperial)

To : (windUnits)

Code: Select all

// Wind Units 1=AU(Metric) or 0=USA/UK(Imperial)
$windUnits          = 1; // added for displaying Both KMH and MPH
$defaultUnits       = 1; // added for displaying Both (Metric) and (Imperial)

Regards Bellenden Ker, QLD. Took me back a few years to when I was 19 was sent from Mackay QLD up to Carins QLD to manage one of our chain of Food Supermarkets I worked for. The main reason for my transfer was to come up with a timely storage strategy for the Monsoon Wet Season, all our stock was Trucked from Brisbane QLD as Air or Ship was too slow or expensive. This was to ensure we did not run out of stock when the highway between Tully QLD and Babinda QLD (which is near Bellenden Ker QLD) would flood sometimes for weeks. So Tully/Innisfail/babinda I recall where the main wet spots back then. I did good job averting out of stock issues even If I do say so myself .
I always recall the street gutters in those towns if you stepped out of your car you had to be careful not to fall down them (so deep).

Anyway thanks for reviving some old memories.

Yes I did a big Dead Link clean a month or so back, I also noticed on your footer it seems that https://www.mad-weather.com/topsites/ url seems dead.

Kindest Regards,
Tony

Hi Tony,
I'll have to tell Mike to add the extremes script https://www.bellendenkerweather.com/index.php
and from his work experience maybe he is an old customer of yours...

This is a picture of his rain gauge recently...

Enjoy,
Paul
