Wunderground.com

These past few weeks, I’ve been hearing a lot of thunder – which reminds me to check on my most visited website since 2011: www.wunderground.com.


Part of my team’s task before was to monitor the weather in the Philippines (North Atlantic included sometimes) for any weather disturbances that may affect the company’s operation here.  Our main website to check is Wunderground.  It was part of my daily routine to open internet explorer -> drop down to favorites and search for the wunderground link -> go to Tropical (which shows the storms and typhoons) then look for our beloved country.  In case I see a weather disturbance, kaboom!  Our daily tasks and deliverables are set aside.  Weather becomes our top priority.

I just miss the chaos the LPAs, tropical storms, and typhoons bring to my team.  We instantly became very stressed out when we see a storm approaching the Philippines – not for the severe impact it brings for the country, but for the additional tasks ahead.  Sending bi-hourly reports, joining conference calls, monitoring the weather are just some of them.  Honestly, after 2 years of being part of the Weather Management Team (not our real team name, just an addition) I would say, I can also hand out my resume to Pag-Asa in case they have vacancies LOL.

Some of the terms we normally use:
Low Pressure Area
Category 1-5 storm
Maximum sustained winds
Gustiness
Scattered rainshowers
Tropical Storm “” locally known as “”
West-southwest (or whatever direction the wind goes)
Eye of the storm

Oh, I just miss browsing through this website haha :D

Just a side note:  my team became dedicated to this task when I was pregnant with Neo.  As a result, my little guy is all very attentive when I AM READY: Serbisyong Totoo of GMA News shows Mang Tanny reporting the weather.
