Textforecast 3.0 officially released
12 March 2025
After a long development time, all textforecast products have finally been ported to GeoJSON. Version 3.0 is now officially out of beta, including some minor corrections in the “lastChange” format to make it ISO 8601 compatible. The old XML version will continue to work until further notice.

Also, starting on 1 April, the “landoverview” text forecast will be shortened from 3 days ahead to 2 days ahead. More precisely the 00 and 06 terms will contain days 0 and 1, whereas the 12 and 18 terms will include days 0 to 2. This was announced on the website in December, but continued delays in the 3.0 launch meant that email notification wasn’t sent out earlier. We apologise for the inconvenience.
