Hello,

so I just went through the most horrible translation experience ever 
with plasma_engine_weather.po/pot. Hundreds of nonsensical combinations 
of weather effects that nobody except the meteorologists understands. It 
was acceptable at the beginning but the noaa strings after 600 were 
really starting to make me mad. Especially strings like "Heavy Freezing 
Rain Rain" and "Thunderstorm Light Rain Hail Fog/Mist". Really? What are 
your experiences with it? Do you think it's to complicated and it should 
be simplified? How did you understand those complex strings?

Cheers,
Andrej
