If you want to avoid Java, I cobbled together some code based on gjr80's
template and added it to /etc/weewx/skins/Standard/index.html.tmpl as
follows:
## Calculate today's highest Beaufort based on wind speed in knots
#if $varExists('day.windSpeed') and $day.windSpeed.max.raw is not
None
#if $unit.unit_type.windSpeed == 'mile_per_hour'
#set $kts = $day.windSpeed.max.raw * 0.8689762
#elif $unit.unit_type.windSpeed == 'km_per_hour'
#set $kts = $day.windSpeed.max.raw * 0.539956
#elif $unit.unit_type.windSpeed == 'meter_per_second'
#set $kts = $day.windSpeed.max.raw * 1.943844
#elif $unit.unit_type.windSpeed == 'knot'
#set $kts = $day.windSpeed.max.raw
#else
#set $kts = 0
#end if
#if $kts < 1
#set $beaufort = 0
#set $word_beaufort = 'Calm'
#elif $kts < 4
#set $beaufort = 1
#set $word_beaufort = 'Light air'
#elif $kts < 7
#set $beaufort = 2
#set $word_beaufort = 'Light breeze'
#elif $kts < 11
#set $beaufort = 3
#set $word_beaufort = 'Gentle breeze'
#elif $kts < 17
#set $beaufort = 4
#set $word_beaufort = 'Moderate breeze'
#elif $kts < 22
#set $beaufort = 5
#set $word_beaufort = 'Fresh breeze'
#elif $kts < 28
#set $beaufort = 6
#set $word_beaufort = 'Strong breeze'
#elif $kts < 34
#set $beaufort = 7
#set $word_beaufort = 'High wind'
#elif $kts < 41
#set $beaufort = 8
#set $word_beaufort = 'Gale'
#elif $kts < 48
#set $beaufort = 9
#set $word_beaufort = 'Strong gale'
#elif $kts < 56
#set $beaufort = 10
#set $word_beaufort = 'Storm'
#elif $kts < 64
#set $beaufort = 11
#set $word_beaufort = 'Violent storm'
#else
#set $beaufort = 12
#set $word_beaufort = 'Hurricane'
#end if
#else
#set $beaufort = 'N/A'
#end if
Put the above somewhere near the top, and then modify the Since Midnight
table by adding a couple of lines in the High Wind row:
<td class="stats_label">
High Wind<br/>
High Beaufort Scale
</td>
<td class="stats_data">
$day.wind.max from $day.wind.gustdir at $day.wind.maxtime
<br/>
$beaufort or $word_beaufort at $day.wind.maxtime
</td>
