  1. biting my tongue ... contradictory posts being made on the md thread, earlier predictions/insistances proven wrong, yet the brown nosers ignore.high time the 'like up' feature was dropped. its meaningless, most of the time they dont reflect the quality of the post but are a vote by 'fans of' for their chosen hero, even though the boards heros are often inaccurate/wrong. its a pointless feature that does nothing but serve to massage the egos of those courting popularity.

     

     

    ill get my coat....

    mmmmmm...... that's a paradox.  How do I now like your post??

  2. That wave coming over Chesil well I live right opposite where it hit in Victoria square , never seen anything like it incredible !

    It requires a long period groundswell. 13th Feb 1979 was an extreme example..... particularly as there was no wind at all (you're too young for that one!). The length of time between successive swells was 18 seconds + and with the amount of water being moved with each 'long period' wave it completely dismantled Chesil beach.

  3. Thank you very much.  Better get the calculator out for this next bought of winds.  Do you think then that I should buy a  new station that displays in MPH for ease of viewing, if you know what I mean.

    Really depends on what weather station you have. Most of the range have an option for changing between metric and imperial measurements, (pressure readings, rainfall, wind speed/force etc). This can often be done on the 'base' station or via software installed on your computer. What model have you got?

  4. cross model support for it to be just a tad too far south and given the propensity for the modelling to correct a bit further south over time, i suspect it wont be a player. cant be dismissed for the time being.

    Thanks ba, I'm not completely miseading the charts then..... but I fear you may be right. It seems amazing to me that having had the current pattern locked in for this amount of time with a predominately Easterly flow that there hasn't been some sort of disturbance running East- West embedded within it. Never seems to be a pesky shortwave when you really want one.
