Monday 11th of January at The Boathouse in Wisbech.
Many of you will know Jim Bacon of Weatherquest well we’ve asked him to run a course for us this winter. He will aim to show why a small outlay in terms of signing up to a weather service can actually save dividends overall. What the difference really is between free information and ‘paid for,’ the results in profit terms.
Half day sessions will run 9am – 12.30pm or 1.30pm – 5.00pm, with a buffet lunch being served in the middle.
The sessions will cover -
• Current models available
• Media products including how to interpret the crazy headlines, which we often get quoted back to us
• A broad look at good information and bad information and how to sort out which is which and make decisions off the back of it
• Discussion on how local winds work, i.e. the mechanism which gives a lull at dawn and dusk and why it sometimes doesn't work
• How sea breezes work across the Fens and the behaviour of winds near a crop canopy
• Cost benefit examples
• A live screen access to the web to interpret the current day's forecast portal
• A question and answer session to round things off.
Members will then have the opportunity to sign up to a free trial for the following 4 weeks with email support.
