How do I add live weather to my shooting range or gun club website?

Paste a single tag from shotdiagnostic.com/embed-docs into any HTML block on your site — WordPress Custom HTML, Wix Embed Code, Squarespace Code block, Webflow Embed element, Shopify or Ghost. No plugin, no JavaScript install, no API key, no account. The widget renders a live, scored shooting-day conditions panel with wind, gust, temperature, density altitude, mirage and a 0–100 shootability score, refreshed every 15 minutes.

Is there a free weather widget for shooting ranges, gun clubs, or archery clubs?

Yes. The shotdiagnostic.com Atmospherics embed is free to use for clubs, ranges, retailers, coaches, and training facilities. It's an iframe — paste it once and it stays current automatically.

Does the embed work with WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, or Ghost?

Yes — anywhere your site editor lets an admin paste raw HTML. WordPress: Custom HTML block. Wix: Embed Code element. Squarespace: Code block. Webflow: Embed element. Shopify: any HTML/Liquid section. Ghost: HTML card. No developer skills required; if you can paste a YouTube embed you can paste this.

What can I embed on my range website?

Two widgets. Atmospherics shows a live, scored shooting-day conditions panel — wind, gust, temperature, density altitude, mirage, visibility, humidity, dew point, pressure and a 0–100 score band — for any listed range. Targets shows a download card that produces a print-ready, calibrated PDF target (Diagnostic Grid, Precision Challenge, Tuning, Know Your Limits, or Scope Tracking) at the caliber, distance and units the operator picks.

Do I need a developer or an API key?

No. Each widget is a single iframe tag you paste into your range website's HTML. There is no JavaScript install, no API key, no account, and no build step. The /embed-docs playground generates the exact snippet to copy.

Can I match the embeds to my range website's colours?

Yes. URL parameters control background, text, muted text, and accent colour for both widgets. The accent colour is automatically contrast-checked against whatever background you choose so the widget should remain readable in normal use.

Can visitors change the target settings on the Targets embed?

No. The Targets embed is a locked download card — every parameter (mode, caliber, distance, units, mode-specific settings, theming) is pinned by you at snippet time. To offer visitors a choice of presets, embed several narrowly-specced iframes side by side.

How fresh is the Atmospherics data?

Live weather is fetched from Open-Meteo and re-scored every 15 minutes per range. The same scoring engine runs on shotdiagnostic.com itself, so the embed score always matches the public range page.

What if my range is not on the directory yet?

Email hello@shotdiagnostic.com with the range name, country, region, and approximate coordinates. New ranges are added on a rolling basis.

Are the embed URL parameters stable enough to paste once and forget?

Yes. The embed URL parameter set is treated as a public ABI: keys, mode and caliber identifiers, enum values, and accepted ranges are only ever added to — never renamed, removed, or narrowed — and defaults are frozen so changing one wouldn't silently shift every snippet that omitted it. Range slugs that need to change are mapped via a server-side redirect table so an iframe pasted years ago keeps working. Contract regression tests run on every deploy to catch any accidental break.

How do I add a wind and weather widget to my WordPress shooting club website?

In the WordPress block editor, add a Custom HTML block on the page where the widget should appear, then paste the snippet generated at shotdiagnostic.com/embed-docs after picking your range and theme colours. Save the page. The widget renders immediately and refreshes itself every 15 minutes — no plugin install, no shortcode, no API key, no developer required. The same snippet works inside Gutenberg blocks, classic editor HTML mode, page-builder HTML modules (Elementor HTML widget, Divi Code module, Beaver Builder HTML), and theme template files.

Does the embed work on a Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify or Ghost shooting range website?

Yes. Wix: Add → Embed → Embed Code (HTML iframe) and paste the snippet. Squarespace: insert a Code block and paste. Webflow: drag in an Embed element and paste. Shopify: edit the page in HTML mode (or any custom HTML section) and paste. Ghost: insert an HTML card and paste. The snippet is a self-contained , so any site editor that accepts raw HTML will render it.

Can I add a calibrated MOA/MIL target download card to my coaching or retail website?

Yes. The Targets embed at shotdiagnostic.com/embed-docs is a locked download card — pick the mode (Diagnostic Grid, Precision Challenge, Tuning, KYL, Scope Tracking), caliber, distance, units, and any mode-specific options once at snippet time, then copy the iframe and paste it into your site. Visitors get a one-click PDF download with the calibration baked in. To offer multiple presets (e.g. one card per caliber, or one per distance), embed several narrowly-specced iframes side by side.

How do I quote and explain the SSDI scoring on my coaching site or in client reports?

The methodology is documented at shotdiagnostic.com/methodology — domain-by-domain scoring math, the atmospherics rubric, target calibration math, and the diagnostic flag conditions. Linking clients to that page (or quoting from it with attribution) is the cleanest way to make the scoring legible. Every results page lives at /results/ on a shareable URL the client keeps; the URL itself is the report.

Why pick this iframe over a generic weather widget or a free target download badge?

A generic weather widget shows raw conditions; visitors still have to translate temperature, wind, gust, and pressure into a go / no-go read for shooting themselves. The Atmospherics embed renders the same shooter-specific 0-100 shootability score and 5-band classification (OPTIMAL, GOOD, OK, MARGINAL, POOR) the public range pages use, plus density altitude from station pressure and a 24-hour best-window strip. A generic target download badge produces a fixed bullseye PDF; the Targets embed is a calibrated download card with caliber correction, true MOA or MIL geometry, distance scaling, and a verification hash baked in. Both render inside a single iframe with operator-pinned theming and a stable URL ABI.

Embed Live Conditions and Calibrated Targets on Your Shooting Range Website

shotdiagnostic.com publishes two free iframe widgets for shooting range, gun club, archery club, and training-facility websites. Each uses a single <iframe> tag, with no JavaScript installation, API key, or account. Setup instructions are provided for WordPress (Custom HTML block), Wix (Embed Code), Squarespace (Code block), Webflow (Embed element), Shopify, Ghost, and other site builders that accept raw HTML. The Atmospherics widget shows a live shooting-day conditions panel; the Targets widget shows a calibrated-target download card.

The Atmospherics Widget

Hosted at https://shotdiagnostic.com/embed/atmospherics/<range-slug>. Shows wind, gust, temperature, density altitude, mirage band, visibility, humidity, dew point, and station pressure, together with a 0–100 shootability score (OPTIMAL / GOOD / OK / MARGINAL / POOR) and a short scoring rationale. Live weather is fetched from Open-Meteo every 15 minutes per range and uses the same scoring engine as the public range page. Compact mode is a one-line card for sidebars and page headers; full mode includes all metrics, a today/forecast tab strip, and the scoring rationale.

The Targets Widget

Hosted at https://shotdiagnostic.com/embed/target. The visitor experience is a locked download card that produces a print-ready, calibrated PDF target (Diagnostic Grid, Precision Challenge, Tuning, Know Your Limits, or Scope Tracking modes) at the operator's chosen caliber, distance, units and mode-specific settings. Every parameter is pinned by the operator at snippet time; to offer visitors a choice of presets, embed several narrowly-specced iframes side by side. Every PDF carries a verification hash and uses the same calibration math as the on-site target builder.

Customisation

URL parameters control background, text, muted text, and accent colours so each widget matches your existing range website palette. Accent colour is contrast-checked on the server side against whatever background you pick, so operators are unlikely to accidentally configure an unreadable widget. The /embed-docs page hosts a live playground for both widgets where you preview every combination and copy the exact iframe snippet.

Cost and Attribution

Both widgets are free to use. A small persistent attribution line linking back to shotdiagnostic.com and crediting Open-Meteo (CC BY 4.0) for the weather data renders inside every embed; please leave it visible — it credits the data source and is how other operators discover the widget.

Reliability and Remote Control

Every iframe is served from shotdiagnostic.com, which means appearance, copy, attribution, and availability can all be updated centrally without any change required on the host range website. Embed responses are cached on the CDN with a 15-minute stale-while-revalidate window for fast page loads.

Why use these widgets instead of building a custom integration

The widgets use a single <iframe> tag, with no JavaScript installation, API key, account, build step, or plugin on the host page. URL parameters control colours and other settings. A server-side redirect map preserves existing iframe URLs when a range slug changes.
