Well, I've had a look, and yes, it's an interesting presentation. But it's hardly the accurate forecast we (usually) get from EC. I'm comparing the Norwegian notion of what the weather is like and will likely be for Greenwood (the location I'm most interested in around here) with the EC forecast and current conditions. Frankly, I'm not surprised that a European service would be off the mark most of the time about what's going on in Nova Scotia (although it would be just as easy for them to pick up the EC feed as it is for me). The aspect that's really freaky is the detailed 3h forecasts that go 48 hours out. Even Environment Canada hasn't got the nerve to try that. Doug Linzey Arlington, NS
