Does anyone know why Woodford seems to have gobe walkabout in the

... closed; lease (MO) ran out.

Martin.


... BTW, I understand that there will be a (initially partial)
replacement 'real soon now' to the west of Ringway; whether the SYNOP
leaks out to the wider world remains to be seen.

Thanks Martin and all, that's rather sad, as it was when the Ringway
site closed, it doesn't help the long term records one litle bit.

I'm already wondering what will happen when Solent MRSC and some of
the other coastguard stations close over the next couple of years, I
hope the MO are making arrangements to replace them by something
nearby.
