It should have drifted down to the proper value if you had waited a little longer. It certainly has stabilized at 643 feet for me. See this picture: http://imagebin.ca/view/LyxG93.html (Note: the needle animation seems a little off) I think this is due to the weather interpolation code, which tries to smooth out the sudden changes that used to occur when you crossed METAR boundaries. -- Csaba/Jester ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security easier or more difficult to achieve?
