Hi Guys hope all is well, just a quick one really.

recently on a lot of the TAFS we get as part of our flight pack, usually tagged on the end of the short term TAF is something along the line of TX15/21z TN14/22z or something similiar, does anyone know what this means as no one seems to where i come from

Thanks

Quick answer - Temperature in Deg C at specified Z time.

Topbunk has got it, but just to more precise:

TX is the maximum forecast temperature.
TN is the minimum forecast temperature.

Have a look here (http://www.dmi.dk/dmi/koder.pdf).
