Let's kick off a fresh poll on this as a bit of useful research... how did you come to find UKweatherworld?

[Paul Radon]

I was looking for sites which gave information on the weather around the UK. So in Google I typed 'UK Weather' and come across UKWW. I have logged on almost every day since. :)

About 2 years ago I was searching for any information about a tornado that happened near here and ended up on ukWW. What a great find and although I registered at the time, I didn't really look through the forum much for quiet a while but when I did one Sunday when I had a cold ...

[warlow]

Somebody I was in college with told me that the easiest way to keep in touch with them was to go on this site that they helped run. As a result I am a FROUK (which I would urge everybody to join) and I have learnt a bit about the weather. Can't remember who told me though, but Sam had a lot more hair when he was in college!

[Cindy]

A friend of mine was doing research on what he thought was good weather sites with quailty content.  He came across this one and gave me the link!

How did you find UKww?

Very nice [^]

 

I think I found it originally via André's recommending it....

[Cliff]

Sam told me about it when we spoke after the Daventry Tornado on 22nd July 2004.

I've often wondered how Andre found it ;)  I don't think I ever mentioned to him on, ahem, a certain other forum?

I was just searching Goggle for weather sites and came across UKww, the rest rest is hitory...................... :) So glad i did ;)

[admin]

I did a Google for UK Thunderstorms and UKww came up trumps [y]

[Lorraine Evans]

I went to a TORRO meeting and the plotter was mentioned. I found UKww through that!

Google of course but my eye was caught by a familiar nickname.

I ran into Stu, Matty and Steve on the beach in VA Beach as Isabel was coming in.

Seems odd, but I can't remember (I am getting a bit old[hmmm] ) - I think I was just tooling around and p'raps Googled weather - anyway, came up with this and one or two others. TWO is one I still dip into, very occasionally, but Netweather is a no-no for me - it's personal, but they won't benefit (?) from my input - got my fingers burnt, so to speak, so I'm outta there!! Don't appreciate criticsm (sp) of their type - so went off in a hissy fit. Didn't say so - just didn't post any more - so, I'm a drama queen! Just don't like whiffs of hypocrisy - don't ask!

Took my days off work during the week a couple of years back, had a beach front home, I was interested in I.T and not only had a passion for weather and the physics involved but also got to see complete weather systems from the very south-west tip of Cornwall (still do) and put 2 + 2 together, did a search and found exactly what I was looking for. like minded thinking from like minded people on like minded subjects  -- I was very lucky in that I managed to type to some nice people during some pretty extreme events (i.e..hurricane Ivan) around the world, and now .. partly due to UKww I am about to embark on a BSc in Ocean Science this coming summer.   

If I have not said it recently  - Thankyou Ukww   [s]

I found out about this great website from Conor (lightning strike) who highly reccomended it for reading about and reporting obsv/images of various meteorlogical phenomena and of course the great space and weather section. Of course i took his advice onboard and i have nerver looked back.
