This has been a good week for the National Weather Service. Two new discussions have been added to the Hall of Fame.

New forecast discussion in the Hall of Fame
I added an Area Forecast Discussion from the NWS office in Minneapolis to the Forecast Discussion Hall of Fame. It nearly was rejected on the grounds that it said “Groundhog’s Day” instead of “Groundhog Day”, but I was feeling generous and so overlooked the error.
New discussions added to the Hall of Fame
The Forecast Discussion Hall of Fame has three new entries. Two are submitted by loyal “fans” of the site, and the third is sort of a big thing in the news right now.
- An Area Forecast Discussion from the Anchorage, AK office. This is a long one, and you have to be patient for the humor. (submitted by Ian Blaylock)
- A NHC discussion for Hurricane Kirk earlier this year. Star Trek jokes are a good way to punch your ticket into the Hall of Fame. (submitted by Jill)
- The preliminary extended forecast discussion from the HPC for the effects of Hurricane Sandy (a.k.a. “Frankenstorm“)
New addition to the Forecast Discussion Hall of Fame
The Forecast Discussion Hall of Fame has a new entry tonight. It seems a forecaster in the Nashville office has worked one too many midnight shifts. The latest addition includes allusions to dog waste and a discussion of the use of prepositions to end sentences. Enjoy!
New discussions in the Hall of Fame
Thanks to Tony Cristaldi, I’ve added a couple of new discussions to the Hall of Fame. They’re a bit hard to read because they’re scans of printed discussions from 17 years ago. I can’t say much for the meteorological quality of the discussions because I haven’t actually read them. The real beauty is in the artwork. I hope Forecaster Moore got as much enjoyment writing these and I’ve had looking at them.

A reader named Jill passed a few discussions to me recently. They’re National Hurricane Center discussions about two storms that refused to die: 2002’s Hurricane Kyle and 2005’s Hurricane Epsilon (which was notable enough just for being a December Hurricane). I’ve added them to the Forecast Discussion Hall of Fame page at http://weather.funnelfiasco.com/fd-hof/.
New discussion added to the Hall of Fame
This morning’s Area Forecast Discussion from the National Weather Service office in Romeoville (Chicago), IL is an instant classic. As such, it has been added to the hallowed halls of the Forecast Discussion Hall of Fame. Thanks to my friend Kevin for pointing it out to me.
