Bureau Of Meterology , seminars

Good afternoon,

The Bureau of Meteorology is holding free marine weather seminars over
the next few weeks. The presentation will cover things like:

-Introduction of a new forecasting system in NSW
-Changes to the marine forecasts & warnings
-How to use the radar effectively

The session will be a good opportunity to ask senior meteorologists any
questions about weather, climate, new services, current services etc.

See attached flyer for further details or go to

Feel free to display the attached flyer, or forward this information to

I got all excited when I read the thread title. :D Then I saw that it was for NSW. :( Good fortune for the NSW people, though.

I wish that the BoM would run general seminars in Brisbane just on understanding the weather.

That would be a great innovative service to offer. Probably also a chance for the BoM to get direct feedback on how the forecasts could be improved for the fisherman.
