How do all

As mentioned in chat I emailed Eddie and got this reply

"Yes, I see the files are ok on my server, but the download is truncated. I will have to increase some PHP limit. I will look into this later today."

The problem was due to my bad PHP coding, which led to the limit of one megabyte.

This is fixed now and should work again for the larger weather files.

I hope this helps,
Eddie

It seems (for at least 3 of us) that the grib files are not being loaded by QTVLM - Ive sent Eddie another email and will update here as and when I hear anything (if Eddie doesn't post 1st!)

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Masirah to Chagos


Having crossed, re-crossed and re-re-crossed the Convergence Zones of the Pacific and the Atlantic, we now face our second crossing of the Convergence Zone of the World’s third great equator-spanning sea, the Indian Ocean, taking us from the channel between Masirah Island and the Oman mainland to the Chagos Archipelago. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be sailing our very fine Archer 78, and won’t mention that both locations (of departure and arrival) are heavily militarized and the why’s and what next’s concerning that – mindful as always of SOL Netiquette.
