Sfws

Recorded daily weather on sheets of paper or in a notebook from when I was a child as despite being brought up in a city I found weather fascinating. I did not have enough knowledge to get into theit worldas professionallya professional career, and my notes relied on instruments sold for gardeners, not to quality needed for professionals.

On retirement I bought myself a Fine Offset Weather Station, used since early 2009 (although some parts have been replaced).

Started using Cumulus 1.9.2 (build 1017) asjust because I wanted something that ''would produce web pages that I could experiment with'' (as I had decided to learn HTML 5, JavaScript, jQuery, PHP and MySQL; initially because I thought it gave me a saleable skill for my retirement).

For a few years while away from home (and weather station), as a full-time carer, I learnt about '''METAR usage in all countries of world'''.
