Hi Jonathan, I've spoken with Mike and Frances, our friendly neighbourhood weather procducer, and Frances said this:
"The Met Office send the 24 hour forecasts and 5 day forecasts as separate feeds. Unfortunately they are produced at different times and there is no QA at the moment to ensure that the forecasts are in sync. We raise this with the Met Office regularly and they assure us that they are working to improve their data and put in better QA processes." Hope that helps... Brendan. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of "~:'' ????????????"
