We only had one response,Ira from WA, who offered to do this in his state. Therefore im bringing the topic back again, so if ANYONE is interested to do this in your state/territory , please mail me personally (NOT via the list), and if there are a number of responses from each state, we will select the person at the next ASWA meeting on the 9th Jan. The requirments involve regularly organising meetings and chairing them,organising a place/time to have them, and taking minutes of the meetings and reporting back to the Managment Commitee of ASWA. You will also be included as a member of the Management Committee. So come on people we need your support to get this thing happening all across the country! :) Thanks... Matt Smith Burwood,Sydney. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 003 From: Paul_Mossman at agd.nsw.gov.au X-Lotus-Fromdomain: NSW_AG To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Date: Tue, 29 Dec 1998 10:53:50 +1000 Subject: Re: aussie-weather: Hellloooo.....

If doesn't work for you, then in your status window bar type this: /server NewBrunswick.NJ.US.Undernet.Org 6665 or /server us.undernet.org and when it says you have connected type /join #weather I recommend #weather to anyone who loves chatting about the weather, especailly on the occasions when this list is a little quiet and you're waiting for someone to post, a few of us that are on this list are on #weather almost every day, you can download mIRC at http://www.mirc.co.uk/ and use one of the undernet server in set up. Also, to everyone, I wont be able to attend tomorrow nights IRC meeting, as I have to go to work.

The way things are shaping there is the outside chance of a thundery tomorrow out there, definitely picking up Thursday into Friday and with luck an interesting run home on Saturday. The bad news is that we are camping in the Turon River valley, therefore spotting anything from a distance is a lost cause, even getting a photo will be difficult.

Currently there is a big cluster in the Ipswich area. But it reamains thundery overnight and tomorrow, due to a trough in the region, So you will see at least a bit more of thunderyt rain later on.

Does anyone in Sydney know of a central venue Blacktown to Parramatta or something where we could stage our meetings. Otherwise, we will have to hold the meetings at Blacktown Workers until we find a proper one. We have to apply in writing if we wish to try and get venues free of charge. Otherwise, they charge $50 an hour for function rooms. As a non-profit organisation, some organisations particularly charities are able to do this without paying for the venue. It has to be decided by the management of that particular venue if they are to waive the fee. Any ideas, e-mail me directly or post it on the list to stimulate other ideas. Typically Golf clubs, Bowling clubs, League Clubs etc with a view to the west are ideal. As long as they are free.

Went on a half hearted chase today, actually spent more time swimming in local waterholes than i did chasing storms .. there wasn't all that much around. It actually looked quite good from about midday onwards, many anvils springing up to the W and NW but nothing much came of it. To make it worse, a storm developed to the N/NW of Nambour (approx 60km N/NW of brisbnae), where i ended up in the afternoon .. but i couldn't see anything becouse of low cloud .. and i returned home to find that there had been quite allot of lightning on the tracker from this storm (around 500 blue when i saw it) ... so that was pretty frustrating , maybe some lightning to our north tonight .. LI's are resonable for tomorrow , down to -3 .. here's hoping Actually -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 024 From: "John Graham" [gorzzz at one.net.au] To: "Aussie Weather" [aussie-weather at world.std.com] Subject: Re: aussie-weather:Hello............
