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?

There is no retention it just fills up.

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.

a) Weather-watch.com site seems to up again since 9-Feb-2025 afernoond.
b) so switched back to WXSIMATE and McMahon and ECMWF at 9-feb-2025 18:00/cet and tested fine with WXSIM forecasts.

Yup all fine here now as well.
