    @Mike Powell, if you are reading this pls change the volume to what is actual occurring for the echo as I find it very hard to take that 1,500 per month is any where near actual count on any fido echo let alone this one.

    It is actually not far from accurate. Assuming today is a normal day,
    1,000 a month is certainly closer, but that number will go up deeper into
    the Atlantic Hurricane season.

    OK, I do not get it as being in Europe the echo is pointless but in any event can get the current weather from the Met Office if I have a need.

    That said being retired I rarely have a need for a journey that is important or
    cannot be put off and that includes flying where I will check with the met office for actuals and 9 hour forecasts, etc.
