Forecast discussion

.SYNOPSIS... A new domain has formed over the workshop and is intensifying quickly. Model guidance agrees on a weather theme and disagrees on nearly everything else.

.NEAR TERM... Pages are now built straight from the observation log. Expect frequent changes as the rest of the site comes ashore.

.LONG TERM... Confidence is rising. Maintenance cost remains the deciding variable, and every update is now a single line.
