I was going to suggest some kind of decoder chart for some of the more terse text products, but I see that NWS beat me to it. They have links to explain the various terms, which is kind of nice.
Here is our local NWS page to illustrate the example:
Text Area Forecast DiscussionFor example, ECMWF has a link that explains what that means, among others. I have had to create cheat-sheets for the various radar products KDP, ZDR, SW, etc. and look up what they mean. NWS had some nice training resources on that subject as well.
Although in my youth I wanted to be a Meteorologist, I opted for Electronics Engineering as a career. I have been keenly interested in Weather since I was quite young and with the help of Dad built weather instruments out of spare parts and magazine articles. Of course I am interested in the Meteorology and want to learn more, but my "hobby" is the equipment and web interfaces. Now that I am retired, I can spend more time on that pursuit. I also like WxForum for what it is and the help offered and asked for.
wxtech, same here for neighbors asking for the "forecast". I am constantly reminding them that I don't make forecasts and that it comes from NWS.
