Default More rain in the north and west - Lake Vyrnwy 34 mm

That is strange, Colin. When I open the file
ftp://taurus.caf.dlr.de/put/wetterbilder/UK/image1.jpg
I get an image from the 7th October.

Oh...I have just tried putting that address in another browser. Now I get an
image from 0320 on the 18th November!

That's something I don't understand.

: Colin. Your image from DLR is for the 7th. Also the link is not

permanent,
: and may contain a differnt image at some later time.

I think the date is right, Bernard. The DLR image looks the same to me

as
the one on your own site.

However, I take your point that the DLR link is only correct for a limited
time.

I posted the link to the DLR image yesterday (16th) because your own NOAA

19
image had a very strong blue cast which made the cloud distribution rather
difficult to see.

It was only through laziness that I did not change the link back to your
image this evening.
