We will meet on Monday at 8 p.m. EDT (01:00 GMT) for a live webinar. The live webinar will last approximately one and a half hour and will include plenty of time for a question and answer session. You will need Internet access to participate in this live session.

Course Fee: $35 - SSCA Members / $45 - Non Members

 

Quick review of large-scale (Synoptic/Gradient) weather, so we can contrast that with local weather effects in the Bahamas and Caribbean. We'll discuss each areas' unique local effects, and emphasize local effects which apply in many areas.  This Webinar is appropriate for all cruisers, as some effects (winds paralleling coasts and others) occur in most areas of the world.

 

I'll divulge some of my forecasting "secrets".  Suggest good background in weather, and/or at-least "Weather 101" prior to this course.
