Slecht nieuws voor veel weerliefhebbers lijkt me. Stewart was de drijvende kracht achter de LT verwachtingen van Netweather en gaf ons vaak inzicht in hoe de atmosfeer werkt. Zijn successen daarmee, zijn opgevallen en hij heeft een baan aangeboden gekregen om zijn 'werk' daarmee voort te zetten. Op netweather stond hij ook wel bekend als glacier point.

I've been a member of Netweather since 2005.
In that time I've seen the idea of the sea temperatures over the Pacific having an influence on global weather patterns go from very doubtful to routinely accepted and monitored on a daily basis. The idea that the polar stratosphere exerts a huge influence on the hemispheric pattern in winter go from almost unspoken to now accepted long range guidance.
Regulars will know that I champion a non numerical weather model approach to long range weather forecasting - that in order to accept a model forecast you must first understand and form an opinion of how the global pattern is being driven. This has had its failures, but it's had its successes too. These successes have not gone un-noticed and I've been fortunate enough to have been offered a role with a large multinational providing consultative long range weather forecasts. A tremendous challenge but one I'm very keen on.
This requires complete dedication and precludes any public forecasting role.
Therefore, this posting will be my last on Netweather.
I would like to take this opportunity in thanking Paul for his support over the last few years and the platform that he's given me. I would also like to thank all those others who've attempted to understand my postings over the years, and those who we've shared ideas with, no matter how bonkers they seemed at the time. No doubt others will pick up and run with the approach that I've been keen to promote as the way forward.
You may see me lurking from time to time, but from me for now, I bid you adieu.
Best regards
Stewart
