Airman had just posted before me. And the forecasted temperature are included base on a regional agreements. and if they are given then that during the time of validity and the time of occurence should be there.

I'll bet Im not the only one who has never seen that before! What was the weatherman thinking! sounds like he was out to confuse a few pilots that day.

"That day"? Spain puts temperatures in its TAFs every day, as does Austria and Switzerland.
