Anyone running wview or similar weather data applications?

Just curious if anyone is running any weather reporting applications or related tools on their linode. I saw a couple of posts from kg4peq for their skywarn site (by the way, 73s de kc4kqe!) ;) on a linode.

I just finished building wview ( http://www.wviewweather.com/) and am testing/configuring it now.

Final target design is to collect data from my Davis Pro2 console on a small system here in my home office (either a DNS-323 or another small footprint linux server) and upload a single stream of the weather data to my linode. From there, farm the data out to wunderground, CWOP, weatherforyou, etc. and generate local web pages with current weather data, historical trends, etc. Finally, integrating at least one weather cam (something like the site http://wetterstation-pliening.info/).

wview seems to be a pretty robust tool, but it's (in my opinion so far) a bear to configure. Just wondering if anyone else had set up any weather-data related services on your linode and what your overall design looked like.
