Nev No, but the dopey politicians might forget what BOM stands for and claim that bombs is already provided for as part of the RAAF budget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facthunter Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 True but it's BoM (like the Planes (MiG) so that should give them a clue, because it IS said they don't have one, often. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NT5224 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Do Windy get weather from BOM? I thought the raw data was sourced from US ( NOAA) and European agencies. Sometimes you see organisations like the British Met office also credited. I had thought what Nev said was correct that BOM just locally interpret data from global weather models. I didn't think anybody in BOM actually contributed to the development of those models. We don't locally forecast weather anymore and as I noted before, the local accuracy where I live has been way out. Alan .

facthunter Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 For Per Christmas_Cocos Per in the late 80's the met source was Jeppesen and all them were spot on. Had to be ordered with advance order/ notification for a scheduled run. Nev 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
