Missing sflocs

[Bernard Burton]

I don't know if anyone has posted about this before, but
the sfloc chart from wetterzentrale has not updated since the 11th Dec.

I wonder if anyone knows if this a permanent loss of this valuable service,
or just a temporary glitch.

... I'm told by a reliable source that consequent upon an upgrade of
the ATD system at Exeter (and allied outstations), the old-style SFLOC
bulletins are no longer generated and therefore sites which rely on
these bulletins have lost their access to such data. Whether there are
plans to replace said bulletins I don't know, but I understand that
when EGRR asked various 'official' users of the bulletins whether they
wanted them to continue, the response was indifferent ;-(
