A suggestion, for meteorology and tropical storm history info, link to Wikipedia. An example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_cyclone

There's an active article going about this season:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2005_Atlantic_hurricane_season

And there are articles about each notable storm. For example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Camille

As well as good explanations of difficult concepts:
Coriolis Effect

Many people contribute to the articles, so they are constantly improving, and you can create an article if a topic, say Tropical Forecasting Models, isn't covered yet.
It's almost as addictive as Storm2K.

S2K is a weather board, not a dating service.

oh ya here is mine it would be nice it you could delete duplicates on oyur own


You can delete duplicates - you can delete any of your own posts. It's the little "x" next to the edit button, i believe.

BTW, my idea is to be able to search for thread titles. I've been trying to find one for two days now, but I can't remember where it was.

edit: funny, it was there right after I posted. Maybe it's just the last post you made.

ya but it says that you can't delete a post if it has been replied to so if there is a post below it you can't delete it and if you accitdentaly dupe a post 2 or 3 time you can only get rid of one. oh ya you are probably wondering how I accidentaly dupe a post 2 or 3 times. when i press submit and it isn't loading to fast if you press submit again it will submit it again.

so I know I said this somewhere but I think that to avoid duplicates you can't immidiatly submit another post for at least 30 seconds so it would be like this:

---0:00------------------------------0:30-----
1st post-------------------------2nd post----

instead of

---0:00:00-0:00:23-----------------------0:04+---------
1st post----Duplicate---------------actual second post
