That looks like it could be well over 10 meters away from the road, and the road itself looks incredibly narrow, like single lane narrow. The distance to the road seems like 4x as long as the actual width of the road. It's completely fine and is not going to affect readings in any demonstrable way. Also, are you sure that image is even showing the temperature station? I can't find anything that definitely looks like a temp station, and on satellite images there's another structure a bit to the "right" of this image that looks more like a typical temp station. Either way, I measured the distances on google maps and the road is only 5m wide and the structures in the image are 20-25 meters away. I don't know if you were being ironic or just stupid. |

Obvious errors is obvious, Newark is often several °F hotter than all other stations in the vicinity. Like yesterday:  |

Obvious errors is obvious, Newark is often several °F hotter than all other stations in the vicinity. Like yesterday: Ah so you weren't being ironic. That 93'F station was 3'F warmer than the two nearby 90'F stations, so why is it so weird that the Newark station was 3'F warmer than the nearby station to the southwest? In fact, most stations on that map differed by 3'F compared to their nearest neighbor ffs. It doesn't have to be an error just because a station is 1'C warmer than another station 10km away holy shit. Especially not if it's just one day or a specific time during the day. |

Where'd you find this map?  |

It's that time of year where I start having dreams about thunderstorms again, because we don't get any in Shitfield.
I had a dream last night, that I was in university (for some reason, even though it looked nothing like the one I went to). I went downstairs into the entrance hall area, and for some reason there was really nice music playing. But, water was starting to pour in through the ceiling. I wondered why til I went outside and saw it was raining extremely torrentially and sideways. The wind and rain was so strong I could hardly walk. It was also the evening and there was a freaky orange glow on the huge dark storm clouds. As the storm got even worse there was constant thunder, then finally a barrage of intense CG lightning, many of which started striking the university buildings, and then the roof of the buildings burst into flames and started burning down. The lightning was that close of course each time sounded like a gunshot, then more fires started breaking out, and the whole place was in flames and a terrifying orange glow everywhere.

Question for the Aussies in here:
Which city/town in Australia is the most windiest? Not just large cities, just any inhabited areas...

I mean, I've researched this but I think the results may not be accurate/reliable. www.bonzle.com/c/a?a=f&sc=wind Port Welshpool, VIC is the windiest in Australia, and Newcastle comes at #4? Um, okay....  |

Typical summer weather pattern established: clear and cold nights, then going overcast between 1PM and 7PM for a cold day before clearing up again.

This is a follow-up from an earlier shoutbox Dicksuction regarding Dec 2019 heat in Australia, involving myself and Cheeser. Long story short, but this is the grandest outrage in meteorological history. Can you spot it?  |

Lol...  For Australian standards, Penrith and Perth are still pretty mild. |

What temperatures do the Brits find comfortable in summer? Here is the poll. I agree with the poll. 20-22/23 is nice, specially with sun or scattered clouds. Anything over 24-25 is needlessly hot. Over 30 can fuck off.  |

End of the week's warm spell, what a zzzzzzz. Downgraded to 24 hours of warm weather* followed by one of the coldest and wettest weekends in history. I would rather have sunny 20 degree weather for four weeks than one "hot" day of 28 degrees followed by that pustule infested buggery. Literally everything in this cli-mutt gets downgraded to fuck. Warmth in summer, thunderstorms, blizzards, cold spells, you name it. I know this is a maritime climate but even so, wish models wouldn't tease us so much like this. Blah. Boring ass climutt. No storms or anything interesting for months and months and months and months. A one-day "heatwave" with the weekend blighted by 10°C and constant light rain drizzly shit-cuntery. POO. This 24 hour lukewarm blip will not end in any kind of thunder of course. I have to watch youtube videos these days to remind myself of what thunder actually sounds like. *Note: I don't particularly enjoy hot weather (nor cold weather for that matter) but I DO, as a weather observer, like seeing interesting stuff happen, and am disappointed with the constant erosion of anything remotely interesting happening in this climutt. So, no more forecasts for me. Lead you up that garden path. Pffffft. Rant over!!!! Have a nice jolly old day chaps!!!   |

2 dozen posts in 3 hours. On this forum, it takes 3 weeks to achieve 2 dozen posts in the NH/SH thread.
Fuck me dead. Makes the polar fizzer trolls on the Vic and Tas factions on the former Weatherzone look sane.

If there was a "cold hater's club" in winter it would be shut down and the OP banned in short order.

I remember on Wankerzone, wanting/liking heat in summer led to ridicule and even being accused of wanting bushfires, with a heaping dose of farmer drought guilt tripping added in for good measure. Glad that shithole ran out of money and got shut down. |
