F215 is normally prepared in the early hours of the morning (i.e. during the night).

The TAFs are done a lot later, usually when the day's weather has developed a bit, and are not issued until the airport in question has issued its first METAR.

The "TV" forecasts are as described, erring massively on the safe side and so ambiguous so as to be useless.
