[Rhodes22-list] Weather Forecasting

[Mark Kaynor]

Bob,

Sure does! We went to a couple of sessions Lee put on at the SSCA gam last
Nov. He called it the "fire hose treatment" (as in "like trying to sip
from...").

After realizing how little we knew about the weather, reading and actually
understanding weather faxes, etc., I'm in the process of getting a two day
ocean weather course together. Lee has agreed to come to Blacksburg over a
weekend in May if I can get 10-25 to attend. Let me know if you're
interested.

BTW - you may have see the article about NOAA's Ocean Prediction Center in
Cruising World's Dec 2003 issue (page 76, I believe - here's a link to an
online copy:

Mark:  No.  An ex-Navy type by the name of Tim Rulon, who works for the
National Weather Service. It actually was a superficial overview but that is
about all you can expect in an hour.  Just makes you hungry for more
information especially as you start venturing farther a field.
