Please note: IN THE END A SPECIAL MESSAGE TO ANYBODY
LIVING IN SOUTHERN SWEDEN.
Hello colleagues!
All three European optical observing networks are uniting their
forces for common observing goal for the first time in April this
year. Last year Finns and Germans (we had one observer also in
Austria and in Holland) tried co-operation at spring time.
The results of that project were e.g. gathered to a beautiful
summary leaflet with descriptions of displays, satellite pictures of
weather fronts and analysis of rare halos as well as statistics.
Everybody who participated the project got the summary leaflet mailed
to his/her post box. Also about everybody thought that this big
project was good fun! This april the Dutch observing group is
coming in to this simple one-month observing project too.
QUESTION
So the question is here: Is there any Europeans among the meteoptic
people who would like to participate somehow in our APRIL observing
project? Particularly people living outside the Netherlands, Germany
or Finland?
The minimum observation is just to draw all halos seen in April.
Observation should include date / time / place for each halo drawing
and that´s it. If you see big displays or rare halos, then additional
descriptions, observing stories, photographs, etc are of course most
welcomed.
TO SWEDES: We are especially interested in tracing e.g. cyclones
and other weather systems that might bring e.g. rare halos and big
displays accross the Europe in April. So as we ve got observers now
well accross the mainl Central Europe and on the other hand high up
North in Finland, then the biggest and most worrysome whole in
our observing map is in Southern Sweden! So for anybody living anywhere
in Sweden, or particularly in Southern Sweden: we hope a lot
that you could participate! Please contact to "masillan_at_cc.hut.fi" or
"marko.pekkola_at_helsinki.fi". If you are interested we can send you
more stuff on this.
Best regards, Marko
