Portal talk:Weather

needs fixing

Hmmmmm, the runescape portal puts the news on runescape.com on the portal, so why shouldn't we put the forecast and the whole kit n' kaboodle here from weather.com? --Calvinsupergenius 15:50, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

If you're going to do that, use http://www.noaawatch.gov/ instead, as it isn't a commercial site. Titoxd^(?!?) 20:52, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Reorganization

Just reorganized this, added a bunch....looks like it's been orphaned for some time. Hopefully we'll make this a nice active portal soon. -Runningonbrains 22:05, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Please check article names

See discussion at Late November 2006 Nor%27easter#Name of the article. The problem might affect some other years with similar articles. --213.155.224.232 17:49, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Portal:Non-tropical storms

I've received a message from User:Juliancolton wondering if a new portal called Portal:Non-tropical storms can be launched. I would be in favor, however I think we should to do research and do new articles about older winter storms and perhaps new Winter storms of xxx year articles as well. As far as tornado outbreaks, we have some pretty good articles from the past. Anyone in favor of this new portal?--JForget 01:38, 6 January 2008 (UTC) @JForget Nice idea I like it. -Fdmjiv

Portal:Climate change

Hi. Please start a new portal for this. Thanks. ~AH1 ^(discuss!) 23:03, 28 September 2011 (UTC) That kinda is in the same topic of weather. Fdmjiv (talk) 22:15, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

Please help out on the article about the recent European snowstorms and their effects

I think this topic is notable enough and I'm puzzled why Wikipedia lacks articles about huge snowstorms. My article: March,_2013_European_snowstorms, thanks! -Rev L. Snowfox (talk) 13:22, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Wrong week/ Fixing

The "This week in weather history" part needs fixed, why? Because its on the WRONG WEEK -Fdmjiv The Week Should Start Today, The Day Is May 22 2015 so it goes May 22 May 23 May 24 May 25 May 26 May 27 And May 28 Fdmjiv Sun 10:16 AM

@Fdmjiv: I've had a look at the coding of this part of the portal. It takes no notice of the current day-of-the-week, and displays weather news from today's date plus-or-minus three days. You are welcome to change the coding if you wish. -- John of Reading (talk) 14:42, 22 May 2016 (UTC) Nah, I'm not doing that, I am not changing more coding-Fdmjiv Sat 6:08 PM 2016 (EST)

New article: Tropical cyclone season (All Areas)

I've had this cool idea for a long time and I've decided to share it with you. This is a new article about the tropical cyclone season going from 1990 to 2015 it includes the timeline and history of all the tropical cyclones in one year in pacific, indian, and atlantic oceans. Yes, yes i know, the topic is already covered (in separate articles) but I haven't seen anything about the indian ocean but this makes it easier to find all that in ONE article. Like my idea? Tell me. -Fdmjiv Mon 5:56 PM

The Fujita Scale

The Fujita scale is to mesuare wind speeds but the wind acuarulates to the damage. But if EF5 tonrdadoes does incredeble damage, well lets talk about ef6 and ef7. There like monsters so it will tear apart anything so there the most dangerous in the world. The question is, is the ef0-ef5 a pre-fujita scale? well i guess it is because...Every video on the tornadoes is just from ef0 to ef5. It just cunfusoses me because they dont put the ef6 an ef7 tornadoes.

There is a secret between supercells and tornadoes..The tornadoes look like spinning dust and clouds while supercells you wont want to be in. There like tornadoes that attend to get thicker and wider at the bottom..and there you have it.

I hope you enjoyed and Bye! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:C6:0:6C5E:F1BB:BA76:22B6:5794 (talk) 12:51, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

• The EF scale doesn't actually have an upper limit (like the individual F-scales do) - so there is no such thing as a wind speed higher than EF-5 (which is anything greater than 200 mph). There actually is such a thing as a "theoretical F6 tornado", and the F-scale actually goes up until the speed of sound I believe. Guy1890 (talk) 06:25, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

Notice from the Portals WikiProject

WikiProject Portals is back!

The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.

As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.

There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals. So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.

Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.

And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.

From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,    — The Transhumanist   07:50, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

To whom this may concern

this as probably already been recognised, but many (potentially the majority?) of weather-related article previews show the default hurricane map that shows up as the first image on (most? any?) page(s) included in the Weather Portal

not sure if this is a site-wide issue related to preview popups of pages included in portals, but for some reason I've noticed it very frequently among weather-related articles

also not sure that this is the right place to report what is probably a programming bug, but I don't know how to do that, so if anyone finds this if you could forward it to the relevant party please and thank you that'd be greaaaat, thaaaaanks mkay?

and I'll make sure you get that memo - Bill Lumbergh (talk) 02:31, 17 December 2022 (UTC)

Cooperative Institute for Mesoscale Meteorological Studies → Cooperative Institute for Severe and High-Impact Weather Research and Operations

Renaming proposed: since the CIMMS has been absorbed into the new "Cooperative Institute for Severe and High-Impact Weather Research and Operations" on October 1, 2021, shouldn't the article name be changed accordingly? Please give tou advice at discussion. Pierre cb (talk) 15:41, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
