Catherwood I think you *are* right, or at least on the right lines...

Someone mentioned weather in the channels the other day, and I've been looking at the same kind of things, although I must confess hadn't come across such a comprehensive list as Caterpillars! I spent about an hour on the Met Office site yesterday, but just couldn't match anything perfectly.

I did come across this though, http://www.ukweather.freeserve.co.uk/metarpg.htm
which looks like perfect puzzle material to me!

I absolutely agree.....it is weather code related.

Just not sure what to do with it. Very Happy

Maybe search for the 20 cities that the weather fits to, and their first initials form the code answer?

Yeah, but methinks there's a lot of cities to choose from with similar weather.

Why does today's only have two lines?

Either there's more yet to come (suggesting the source information is time dependent)

or there are only 2 sets of data for today

Did today have half as much weather as previously?

I don't think so.

Well we know it's not about location.

Congrats! There's no point pretending that that isn't the answer now, although I would have preferred it if you sent me it privately via PM instead of posting it here publicly. I'm not entirely sure who to give the GMail invitations to now though.

Incidentally, there were also some hints in the odd wording of the first post:

"To help pass the time until Project Syzygy kicks off, I had the capital idea of creating a little puzzle - totally unrelated to the game! - where three winners will each receive an invitation to Google's Gmail service. Weather or not everyone and their dog is already on Gmail is not something I know, but if you're not it's very useful, and if you are then you can pass it on to someone else. In any case the prize is not the main thing. "[/b]
