take a look in forecast_strip.inc at line 116:

var default_display_settings = {

//  'orientation': '$orientation',

  'orientation': 'vertical',

  'show_temp': $show_temp,

change that to this:

var default_display_settings = {

  'orientation': '$orientation',

  'show_temp': $show_temp,

then you can set the orientation in weewx.conf, skin.conf, or inline as you 
would any of the other forecast parameters.

each of the forecast views has a parameter that controls how far into the 
future the forecast should display (e.g., num_periods or num_days).   if 
that is a longer timespan than the amount of forecast data in the database, 
then the display *should* show nothing for those empty days/hours.

i probably do not have the defaults for these dialed in perfectly just yet 
(as you might have noticed, there are many different forecast sources, and 
many different ways to view forecasts now.  testing all of the permutations 
is becoming a formidable challenge!)
