Why I Built Pro Weather

If you own a Davis weather station, you have probably looked for a way to put your data online. The options out there are not great. You can use WeatherLink's own dashboard, but it is basic and locked to their design. You can try WeeWX or CumulusMX, but those need a computer or Raspberry Pi running all day and night. You can install PHP weather templates, but then you are dealing with FTP uploads, broken scripts, and cron jobs that stop working for no reason. Oh, and your history disappears after a few months because WeatherLink only keeps recent data on their free plan.

I went through all of that myself. I spent more time fixing things than actually looking at my weather data. The tools were powerful under the hood, but using them felt like stepping back in time. I wanted something that just worked.

So I built Pro Weather. It is an all-in-one solution that takes your Davis WeatherLink API key and turns it into a beautiful, fully hosted weather website in minutes. There is no server to rent, no software to install, and nothing to maintain. Your site updates itself every 10 minutes, and your data is stored forever so your charts and records keep growing over time. You get your own domain with automatic SSL, a clean interface that works on any device, and the whole thing sets up in minutes.

What started as a personal project to scratch my own itch is now a service for anyone with a Davis station who wants a website that looks as good as their hardware.
