Hi my local area radar service has not functioned for several days. The area is Cairns, Queensland, Australia. Will it be restored? thanks, Dave G.

@idefix37 Thanks for pointing out the different sources available. It is interesting, my location is at the foothills of Queensland state's highest and 2nd highest mountain ranges (Bartle Frere and Bellenden Ker) - but we do still normally get the hotter temperatures like the other weather station locations around us. Occasionally cooler temperatures flow down from the mountains depending on wind direction, but not often. I will check out the other temp sources and see how they go. Thanks again - David.

@stitch thanks, I will check out this site too!

@idefix37 and here's one from today. Again, the forecast temps are about 3-4 degrees lower than the actuals. Thanks

@idefix37 I will try again to upload the screenshot I was referring to. It failed the first time

![screen shot forecast temps etc 23.11.22.jpg](/assets/uploads/files/1669175865859-screen-shot-forecast-temps-etc-23.11.22.jpgHi,

I would like to point out that the temperature forecasts for my area in Queensland, Australia have not reflected the true temperatures for many weeks now. For instance today, and the last three-four days, we have experienced a 'heatwave' (forecast by Australia's Bureau of Meteorology), with temps reaching 35-36 deg C but the highest forecast on Windy was around 30-31. Is there a reason for this? As I'm writing this about 2.00pm local time, the outside temp is 34 deg and your forecast bar shows 29. Thanks, David Gardiner.
