Priority fixes for weatherzone.com.au
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Accelerate
No render-blocking scripts in <head>
Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 2 external scripts without async or defer.
Why it matters: A plain <script src> in the head stops the browser from showing anything until that file has downloaded and run.
What to do: Add defer to scripts that need the DOM, async to independent ones such as analytics, or move them to the end of the body.
On Next.js: Use the next/script component with an appropriate loading strategy.
56% of Weather Forecast peers do this. Limit: Based on the homepage HTML delivered to an automated client; scripts that run later were not executed.

Priority 2 · Harden
DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject
Observed: The DMARC policy for weatherzone.com.au was p=none, which asks receivers to take no action on failing mail.
What to do: Publish DMARC with p=none and a reporting address first, fix any legitimate senders that fail SPF or DKIM alignment, then move to quarantine and finally reject.
31% of Weather Forecast peers do this.
Priority 3 · Harden
Framing restricted
Observed: The homepage did not send frame-ancestors or X-Frame-Options, so other sites may frame it.
What to do: Send Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self' (or a list of trusted origins). X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN covers older browsers.
On Amazon CloudFront: Set frame options in a response headers policy.
38% of Weather Forecast peers do this.
Priority 4 · Harden
Certificate lifetime of 100 days or less
Observed: The certificate from Amazon had a 197-day validity period, longer than the 100-day maximum that applies from March 2027.
What to do: Move to automated issuance and renewal now, while you still have time to test it.
59% of Weather Forecast peers do this.
