I've been a member on this forum many years and yet I can't easily find a comprehensive list of acronyms and abbreviations to translate some of the terms used by more seasoned posters on here.

I found this (below) but it's deeply down in the archives

http://forum.netweat...-abbreviations/

a little googling found these:

http://www.srh.noaa....rx/glossary.php

http://www.srh.noaa..../acronyms_a.htm

I wander if it would be possible to have a 'pinned' topic in the help area to enable any new visitors (or those like myself who need a little refreshing) to view a concise list of weather terms / Acronyms and abbreviations with maybe a single line to explain ? Maybe even (dare I suggest) a quick link at the head of the model discussion thread

I'd start a list but haven't clue what I am talking about ! - still learning, enthusiastically (-;


Mods please feel free to delete this if indeed there is a more recent thread on this subject out there

its here PP in the Net Wx Guides, just scroll down the page until you come to it.
It seemed the best place to put it when I made the list-not exhaustive but I hope most are in there.
Well worth looking in the Guides section anyone else if you want an answer to many things mentioned in the weather threads.
