It's more the ones which leave that I'm missing - the killfile can't
bring those back :/

If I can safely ignore the GW threads, I can safely ignore the trouble
makers - although I cannot control the consequences of their actions

Like all fora there is plenty of rubbish on there, however as winter
gets under way look for some/all of the following posters John Holmes,
Nick Sussex and oldmetman.
They give a balanced view of upcoming exciting weather events and they
do not constantly have a dig/snipe at other members for having a
particular favourite type of weather.

Nice one! I'm "only" 10 pages into it and it's the sort of thing that
I'm after

Also you wont find UKSW's self appointed "coldie" policeman there
either as he was banned a long time ago.

Good stuff, otherwise in my experience over time one rotten apple rots
the whole barrel. I believe in free speech as much as the next guy, but
that doesn't mean tolerating antisocial behaviour.

There is nothing wrong at looking/hoping for cold /snow, i know i do,
but then i also like intense heat - what does that make me? Bi-Polar?

I melt at 24C - although now that I have a dehumidifier (my house was
renovated last year, and now it's less well ventilated), it'll be
interesting to see if I feel the heat as much indoors in the next big
heatwave.

I often describe myself as an extreme weather addict.

Extreme heat
Extreme cold
20M vis fog
50mm rain (I live in the South east - 50mm is extreme!!)
60+Kn wind

I love them all.

I'm almost the same!

Extreme temperatures can go shove it, UNLESS:

Deep snow
Ice (but only if I can find my cleats - having no grip is no fun)
Stair-rod rain
Strong winds which can get close to knocking me over
Fog
Fog, at night, walking down a street with cute-looking street lights
shining through it
Fog, rolling along a river surface whilst walking on the towpath
Lightning storms

yes were all trying to mute out the bafoon west of Will.

I'm a lurker.

But that's not the confession.

My name is Nick Humphries, and I'm addicted to the Annual Winter Snow
Watch.

In previous years I've loved the Annual Winter Snow Watch, and following
Will Hand and other's thoughts on the chances of snow has been a real
treat, especially in the run-up the the snow events in '09 and '10.

Now that enjoyment has been spoiled by the sorts of enthusiasm-draining
behaviour you tend to find on unmoderated forums after a while, can
anyone recommend any other forums or forum threads which are similarly
enthusiastic snow watches?

I'd go along with that.

Netweather's forums are well run with a variety of model output and related
discussion, regional discussions et al.
I think it has a definite edge over The Weather Outlook's forum, though I
read both, and also UK Weather World, in addition to this newsgroup.
