Dodgy David's Weather Techie Tip
Weather Those of you that try and find a decent weather forecast may
have come across dear old Frank Singleton’s home page at clara.net and
thought “what a bloody mess”. Anyway that nice Ed at MailaSail has
tidied it all up and you can now navigate straight to www.weather.mailasail.com and see
that not only is all Franks’ stuff now tidy, but Chris Tibbs has also
been signed up ready for some input from his pages. This link is quite clever – http://meteonet.nl/aktueel/brackall.htm
you can pick it up from the same web site and it’s from the Met
Office, but cobbled together by a Dutch Web Site and gives you 9 synoptic
charts in one hit – you can then click “edit>>select
all” then click “file>>save as” and keep the charts for
later reference on your PC - how about that for value on your 3G card or slow
Internet connection. I use these pages and the GRIB files from www.grib.us to see
if I can make any sense of the weather – it’s still mostly a guess,
but hopefully with the odds stacked in our favour. Hope you have fair weather for your passages this year. Love Suzie Too |
