Just one thing about these suggestions, if I implemented any of them I would only provide a display, the code to provide the data to drive them would be your responsibility.

(having written a tidal prediction program in the past based on the Admiralty harmonics method [on a Psion 3a - remember them!] and lunar/solar programs recently, I know what a nightmare they can be. Its fine not bad for the UK, but time zones and DST are a pig to handle in Javascript)

Mark,
Is it possible/feasible to build a dual gauge?
What I have in mind is a gauge with an upper and a lower scale to show for example, outside and inside temperatures in the one gauge.
