Yes the French meteorogical web site has warned this already several month ago. This function is replaced by an other function named "Prévisions modèle maille fine" in French, that's mean they are now using the facilities of the meteorological Arome model. You can check visibility, low ceiling, rain... Edited 3/19/2020 12:45:04 PM by dcoquelet
