Not high priority prior to initial launch, but we'll need to go through and make sure all of the pages are mobile friendly

The STORM image on the home page is not linked to the STORM page.

We need to know what to add to the climate resources page. Here are some suggestions from the faculty and myself:

Climate Dynamics:

1. NCEI Climate at a Glance
2. CPC ENSO + Oscillations
3. IRI ENSO Forecast Plume

Climatology:

1. HPRCC Climate Summary Maps
2. U.S. Drought Monitor
3. SC-ACIS and XM-ACIS
4. ACIS Web Query Builder
5. CoCoRaHS

Climate Change:

1. NCEI National Climate Report
2. NCEI Climate Extremes Index
3. ... Everything from the old section I guess

Climate Modeling:
Same, consider the existing resources

Looks like the footer work has caused some display issues on the Faculty page. Should be a straightforward fix.

The mouse pointer doesn't change in Firefox when I hover over the "More" button to access a faculty webpage

The site footer needs try to match the UNCC standard. If not, maybe we can strike a compromise with good look-a-like, linking back to UNCC and their web legal stuff.

I realized that I didn't add the analytics snippet before pushing the site out, so we are currently blind to usage information

Likely a to-do after the initial launch, but we'll need to add an internal interface where students can provide their short-term forecasts for display on the website

• Fix 48 Hour Current Conditions Graph Bug (Maybe related to this)
• Homepage - Revisit current conditions image shape
• Resources - Footer is being violated by CSS
• Sitewide - Revisit Mobile Options? Maybe?
• STORM - White description text
• Chi Epsilon Pi - White description text
• Faculty - Brian Magi 404

Items on forecasting resources need descriptions

Current conditions is almost done, but needs a little polish. For instance, there isn't a default date in the custom 24 hour period field. Maybe we can add the highcharts-exporting library so people can download graphs too.

Station archive needs to be finished and linked to the navbar

Dr. Magi suggested using the Purple API. I'm thinking a current conditions graph and maybe a home page component? Should be a fun add-on!

A working list of local weather, forecasting, and climate resources is needed to help facilitate the development of the Forecasting and Climate Resource pages. This is to help keep everything organized and track progress as things are added/removed. (edited to remove climate resources - those are listed in #5)

Forecasting

Local Weather

• National Weather Service (GSP)

Forecast Maps/Data

• Pivotal Weather
• Tropical Tidbits
• eWall
• Iowa State Meteogram
• WPC

Upper Air Data

• University of Wyoming
• Storm Prediction Center (Soundings/Maps)
• College of Dupage

Tropical

• Tropical Tidbits
• NHC
• FNMOC
• CIMSS Tropical

Surface Obs

• UCAR Surface Map
• NWS Timeseries

Satellite/Radar

• NWS Radar Page
• College of Dupage
• CIMSS Tropical

Links still need descriptions
