thread about 15 days beforehand.


... did anyone think that this was a good idea? Not much enthusiasm at
the time so I don't want to start off unless it would be useful to
anyone. It would just be a 'discussion' trying to give a broad idea of
cloudiness etc., and I would undertake to update at least once per day -
only from GFS in the early days, but bringing other models in nearer the
time.


Well I would be interested in it for one, cos I'm gonna be in charge of one
such observing event on the day! In fact, if it ain't too much trouble, an
email of it might be nice!
