Tue 20 May 2025: I am changing the rain forecast maps in the forecast section to a new provider. I apologise that reprogramming is taking longer than expected. The old COLA forecast maps still work BUT you need to wait for them all to load before they are displayed and this is not always successful. They are also sometimes a day or two old. These issues are due to changes at COLA and the new setup will avoid this.
01/01/21: World Weather Maps are no longer being produced due to the considerable overheads involved in their running and maintenance.
