In a now closed thread several times it was derisively mentioned about crusty old hams just talking about the weather. This does happen, but it's no different than sitting in a bar talking about the NFL or around a campfire talking about lockers or at the coffee machine at work talking about the weather. Most of what we converse about is, honestly, dull.
But if you happen to be in or around Colorado you will hear an interesting weather net that dates back to the 1950s. Back before there were interconnected devices and the Internet the National Weather Service needed to know state-wide meteorological data and hams were happy to help. They are now entering their 60th of collecting weather data and reporting it to the NWS every morning.
