Live Weather on a Chumby

Andy — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 12:03:00 +0000

We have a feeling this is perhaps only of interest to a very small audience… but if you have a Chumby, live in London or just want to know the weather in London via a live feed from the du roof then your in luck. We have knocked up a quick ‘Chumby Widget’ to display live weather data.
You can grab the widget (and see it running) via Chumby.com.

iPhone Live Weather App

Andy — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 13:47:00 +0000

For various reasons we have been away from the blog for the last few days, which although annoying, has given us enough spare time to knock up a live weather ‘app’ for the iPhone.

While not strictly an app in its purest sense, using various meta tags it runs full screen in Safari once added to the home screen and includes an icon, making it as close to an app as you can get. Indeed using meta tags is a quick and easy way to get the ‘app look’ while not having to go through the iTunes store.

The data refreshes every 3 seconds via our offices in Central London, the weather station is located on a roof just off Tottenham Court Road.

Simply go to http://www.casa.ucl.ac.uk/weather/iphone.html and then click the + icon to ‘Add to Home Screen’ on your phone. The page is formatted to work with the majority of mobile devices so if your not an iPhone user you can still get the live updates.

At the moment only London is available but if there is interest we will make the template available for other users and locations

After a few months out of action due to a dodgy anemometer a trip to the roof today has bought our weather station back online.

The weather station is located on the roof of 1-19 Torrington Place, just off Tottenham Court Road in Central London, providing a live feed every two seconds.

We also have an ajax powered version formatted for the iPhone – simply double tap to zoom into each section, again data updates every two seconds:

Perfect for checking the weather in London live while sitting on the bus (or is that just us?)
