One thing I would appreciate is when one of the mets (and yes, I REALLY do appreciate their expertise and willingness to spend time here with us) puts up a really "met-speak" post (there's one up now in the current talkback thread) and posts a BUNCH of techno-weather-terms that leave me wondering if they're even speaking English, I wish at the end of their post they would summarize it in "plain English."

For example, after they get done talking about mesowhatsis impacting with boundary lines and floohahs and whatnot for five or ten paragraphs, to boil it down at the end and say, "The bottom line is _____."

I appreciate that they're helping. But I'm a reasonably intelligent person (I write software tutorials for crying out loud) and by the time I get done reading one of those, I feel like a moron.

I can go onto the HPC or NHC and read techno-babble-weather-speak (and still feel like a moron), but it would be nice if here we could also get a Cliff Notes version. *LOL*

Again, I'm NOT griping that they took the time to put out a well-thought (I'm assuming it's well-thought -- with all the jargon I honestly don't know if it is or not) technical posting. I'm glad they did. But if they could add an extra sentence or two at the end to say, "This means ___." Or, "This means don't worry." Or, "...And this is a good thing." Or whatever. Sometimes I'll read a technical post and have NO clue if what they just posted is a good or bad thing.

Or...is it just me? *LOL*
