Re: SHANNON PARK WEATHER FORECAST
This site was passed on by Andrew Smith and is specific to a wide range of local sites. I have no idea of what their individual sources is but they work well. Even differentiate in readings between Halifax and Lawrencetown.
A good site to put on your bookmarks.

I've asked Rick (Web Administrator) to make this thread a "sticky" so it will remain at the top of the "Anyone Flying" forum so we can all reference it quickly in future.

Re: SHANNON PARK WEATHER FORECAST
Those wind speeds on the yr.no website are in metres per second, not kilometres per hour. Amazing how a Norwegian site has predictions for Shannon Park.
To convert multiply m/s by 3.6 to get you km/h. To expand on how I did this; speed in m/s X 3600 seconds in an hour / 1000 metres per kilometre. So (5 m/s X 3600)/1000 is 5 X 3.6=18
So 5 m/s should be about 18km/h or about 11+ mile per hour for the metric challenged.
3m/s is about 10.8 km/h
This is the way I calculate it. You may use other methods and arrive at your own answer.

Re: SHANNON PARK WEATHER FORECAST
I always have it set to knots and find it's pretty accurate, but only a day or two out as conditions change quickly.
