Hello, well I have just signed up and I think this is a fantastic looking site, a neat layout and easy to follow. My name is Daniel and I have been interested in the weather ever since I was a baby. I am only 15 years old however I know a fair amount about the weather and hopefully over the coming weeks I will be able to show you by adding my input and getting stuck into the discussions that get going here. I am from North Kent although I was born in London, and I am very friendly :oops:
I would just like to ask where can I post my forecasts, because I cant seem to find a suitable place. Thanks
We don’t have anywhere, mainly because this is a very international forum with people from a lot of the world’s time zones and countries joining in every day. A forecast for North Kent won’t be of much use to someone in New Zealand, California, Hawaii, Japan, mainland Europe, etc. Also forecasts get out of date very quickly, so they’d have to change regularly. Discussions on forecasting techniques are of interest though and if you want to post a link to your forecasts on your own web site that’s OK.
Welcome Daniel, Quite a few from the UK… and you can check out WU for local weather stations close to yourself and on the Weather Display weather station world map…
Welcome Daniel to the wonderful world of Amateur weather, the wonderful program (WD) and the people who haunt this place.
Anytime you have a question, post it; someone will know the answer, and be glad to help out.
Check out members sites - they’re scattered throughout the world; some sites are similar, some far ‘richer’ in content than others, but they all have a common goal; report the weather in their little corner of the world.
You didn’t mention how you make your forecasts, would be interesting to hear how you make the forecasts and if they are accurate for your area. You also might want to check out the WxSim forum as a few of us on here use that software to gather data, both from external sites as well as our own wx station, to forecast very localized predictions for where we have our stations.
