I've noticed a lot of people posting images of model runs etc. as part of a continuing "conversation" in a thread. For those that are involved in the "conversation" that is nice having the back up etc. For those that are new to weather forecasting, reading models, etc. it may mean nothing. Perhaps a short explanation of why and what you are posting would be in order so that "newbies" can learn from your "conversations"?????? I have no trouble following what is being posted since I have been around this for years, but there are many who frequent this site that do not have that advantage and might be able to learn quicker with even a short concise explanation of what the image you have posted means or suggests. JMHO.

good suggestion and it should also apply to any technical graphic. Sometimes I see quickstat images posted with no explanation on what is going on...it may help the newbies...
