Frequently Asked Questions
- Why hasn't the weather information been updated since…?
In most cases, an old weather page is in the browser's local
cache and that's what's being displayed on your computer.
If the cache is cleared and the browser actually requests
the page from our server, the new forecast will appear.
Weather information is automatically updated on our server.
Forecasts are issued every six hours and appear shortly thereafter.
The current conditions are observed hourly and the current
conditions/forecast page for a city is generated on-the-fly
when requested.
