    Default Weather

    Under the nothing to do with woodwork heading I would like to put a question to a forum that has nothing to do with weather forecasting.

    What causes barometric highs and lows?
    Is it a small heap of cold dense air descending or warm air rising to make a bigger heap thus weighing more?

    This should generate some sober discourses from the wood butchering meteorologists and an entertaining bunch of digressions for which the forum seems to be renowned.

    Who cares.
    All I know is if I go outside and get wet it's raining and if I stay dry it's not.
    That's all that matters to me

    I subscribe to the length of string method of weather forecasting.

    Suspend a length of string from anything horizontal in the garden.
    Check it every day.

    If it is wet, it is raining.
    If it is dry, it is sunny.
    If it is horizontal, it is windy.
    If it is vertical, it is a still day.
    If it has gone, the neighbours kids have pinched it.

    Whether the weather is wet or dry, I believe whether the barometer is high or low depends on whether the person who knocked in the nail it hangs off was short or tall.:confused:
