I live near the Park, in Poole.
I have been interested in Weather from Schooldays at Poole, and continued when I went to work at the Met Office in 1962, at 16, plotting charts at Bracknell for the Forecasters (including a very young Michael Fish).
Sadly, after two years, I became homesick for dear old Dorset, and left.
Fortunately I have followed the development of Technology in Meteorology, and find today's Internet to be a Gold Mine of Weather Information.
I am very pleased to find Wessex Weather, based in Sturminster Marshall, a village with many connections to my family.
Wishing you all the best, and happy Weather Observing! |
