I am Paulo, 66 yo, a weather entusiast from my early youth days, with many thermometers around the house, in the car and even in the pocket
but my first attempt to install a weather station was only 2 years ago (July 2015) with a Netatmo station (temperature, humidity and pressure only), and Wunderground to publish the weather data on line.I soon realized that this was too short and then I bought a cheap Oregon Scientific WMR-88A and created a basic Cumulus site to display all the weather info.
Once again, this was too short and the site has evoluted from basic Cumulus, to Saratoga, then to Homeweatherstation and finally, to Meteotemplate (v7 at that time?)
With the precious help from Jachym, (do this guy ever sleeps?), my site has now the majority of its visitors entering through meteotemplate. The mobile version is by far, the favourite one.

The station is located in Caldas da Rainha, ("Queen's Bath" in english) a small town with 32.000 inhabitants, 80km north of Lisbon and very close to the sea .
The town is in the middle of very green fields all year long (forest/agriculture), and is known for it's thermal hospital, for the local ceramics and specially for it's daily local fruit and vegetable street market and also for an excelent fresh fish market.

View of the beach (Foz Arelho)We have a fantastic unpoluted weather, with very mild winters and fairly cool summers. I would dare to say it is probably, one of the best climates in Europe as you can check here:

This forum was another one of Jachym's great ideas, and I am here to learn a few more tricks on how to use the inumerous capabitities of meteotemplate and of course, to help anyone that may need me.
And to finish this introduction, a special thanks to Jachym. He is incredible!
