OK, I managed to stop the old data in fdata.txt issue, by setting span (days) to 14.
I mean, it says it really needs to be around 70 - 90 days, but how can I do that if the wxsim forecast stops to tell me that the data in fdata.txt is old and won't be used?
The automated wxsim forecasts will completely stop unless I happen to be there to click 'OK'
Catch 22 on this one.
How many forecasts are in your wxsimlitedata folder? Is there a retention for it, or do you just continue to fill your folder up?

Re: is weather-watch.com down?
Well, setting the span to 14 days didn't work.
The date is 2025-02-05, but again, the forecast won't add any bias corrected data because it says that the data in fdata.txt is too old.
I give up with it

If your fdata.txt was last updated today then I suggest you contact Tom.

I've updated it via wxsimlite about 50 times lol
I emailed Tom yesterday and today, but no reply, so he must be busy.
