Is there less climatology in the syllabus now than pre-JAA ?

And from anyone having recently sat Met, what was the climatology content like ?

cheers,

Know where the ITCZ is and the effect it has on the local weather.
You'd be amazed just how many people think it is "dry" in the month of December Darwin, Australia

Gonville, good news is there is very little in the way of climatology in the new sylabus just as redsnail said know where the itcz is and where the high and low pressure areas are.
oh and the standard Q.s on the Haboobs and pamperos.
Also have to agree with M.g John Standen is "The Boy".
Just a quick hello to m.glory and to say i'm getting very worried about you turning into a computer geek! now your living the life of luxury and not suffering the exams you appear to be writing in every post..... <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">
