Hi Sam.  Thanks for doing this.

My Aussie site is better known (at least in Australia) by its title
than my name -- Australian Weather Links and News.

Patrick, there are quite detailed monthly averages and extremes for

Hi Jimmy,

I was away all day yesterday so couldn't get back. You didn't miss anything.
There were no storms visible from my locations. The sky still very dry and
boring inly blue.

At 9.30am 25C, 1018, 35%, No breeze. Some small patches cirrus.


 Terry.

Thanks Laurier, 

I have had a look at the site. With an absolute minima of -14.6, I can 
understand why ice may be so persistent. Also the ground itself is often 
frozen in winter at least for a good few cm. In fact it can be quite 
tricky walking in mid-afternoon when the top few mm thaw on top of a 
frozen base. This is certainly a different part of Australia to that 
which most of us would know.

Patrick

Hi Terry

Jimmy Deguara here.

The storms I was mentioning about were located along the trough line on
Thursday not Friday. Did you see any on that day in your vicinity.

Ben...
the 42 reported from Cooma AWs was wrong - think it must have been 32 or
less.

Hi Jimmy,

Still a negative. No storms within view for quite a while now. Actually I
don't know if I can remember what a storm looks like.

Some scattered cu coming in at the moment but doesn't look promising. Baro.
steady on 1018.

 Terry.

If anyone can help the following person, feel free to respond on the
following e-mail

dunaxisa at waldonet.net.mt  His name is Duncan


I am a meteorological assistant at Malta International Airport and I have 
been teaching aviation meteorology to PPL/CPL students for about four 
years. I am now taking a degree course in education (B. Ed. (Hons)) and my 
dissertation title is 'Teaching av. met. to student pilots'.
I don't know if you are willing to help me on this topic but what I need 
right now is to establish contacts with people proficient in met so that I 
can have a good supply of research and resources which I might need in due 
course. At the moment I am thinking about curriculum development, i.e. 
structuring the met course. The final product of the dissertation would be 
a text book which takes the student from the basic physical properties of 
heat transfer, gas laws, etc.. to av. met. If you have any suggestions mail 
me and I'll be very grateful. If I wasn't clear enough let me know.
I am also intersted in your photos.
Thanks in advance,
Duncan.

Hi every1,

Here's an interesting article for those people into upper-atmospheric 
lightning phenomena:

http://www.weatherwise.org/97aslyons.html

It has some good links too.

Hi everyone,
           I have now put my CGI code online for people to download and 
modify.  It is at:
http://hardy.ocs.mq.edu.au/~m3052695/cgi/
If you wish to improve it or implement or add functions please send me 
some e-mail: paul at marconi.mpce.mq.edu.au
Please read the README.TXT
I haven't been working on this for a while now since I've been doing 
other things, but I may come back to it at some stage and complete some 
more functions myself.
If you can rewrite it and come up with something better by all means do 
so!  I'm sure that there is already a plethora of CGI code freely 
available online probably superior to what I have written.  I mainly did 
it for the sake of writing code...
Cheers,
      Paul G.
