That bit has nothing to do with the tempo

The are Minimum (TN) and maximum (TM) temperatures and time they are expected

I think you may have have missed something bald eagle.

The text you quote contains two TAFs. The first is for LMML, Malta. The second, which contains the temperatures, is for MMAA, Acapulco!

If it helps, the = sign is used as the delimiter to signify the end of a TAF. If you ever see an = sign within a TAF, something is probably corrupted.
