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!)

Rommel by Balloon 2026 - Through the Sahara


Generalfeldmarschall Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel may have been that chivalrous, gallant tank commander of legend, led astray by the Prussian military traditions of loyalty and chain of command, but one thing he wasn’t, was mad. So, let’s do it anyway – not stick to the coast and the battle for logistical superiority – but depart the oases of Siwa south west into the desert for Agadez and its uranium. And let’s go by balloon, it’s only 2500km (1250nm)!
