A short 25 question weather quiz showed up on the CWOP mailing list today and I thought I would pass it along
http://wxqa.com/news.html
I correctly answered 17 of the 25, kind of a poor showing but oh well. 68%
Care to share your results?

Re: Weather Quiz
21/25 84%, there are a few US centric questions in there though, and who knew where the previous wind record was recorded - not me obviously

Re: Weather Quiz
Yeah, alittle unfair on a couple of the Q's, but you did pretty good.
That observatory is notorious for wind chill during the winter.

Re: Weather Quiz
24/25 = 96%. I'd never heard of Cleveland Abbe before. A couple of my correct answers were intelligent guesses.
