I believe this is a by-product of the 2x 737s at Mildura.

The BOM reckoned they were spending huge time resources on ARFOR at the expense of TAF. Apparently GAFs are much less time consuming and they can spend more time on the TAFs.

Seems fair enough to me. With the rate CASA are destroying GA, we won’t need any area forecasts soon.
Perhaps they can spend more time working on global warming?

Look forward to see the accuracy of the TAF’s increasing!

Wait until the TTF’s are replaced with the new TAF’s issued every three hours.

But it always gives me a warm fuzzy feeling that the BOM can provide a seven day forecast for somewhere like Yass!
