Is that a jib at our Met Service?

Is that a jib at our Met Services tiny rain radar with its hourly updates?

We are pointing out that many

We are pointing out that many other nations have updates that are actually useful.  Hourly updates are a bit like hourly rugby updates during a live rugby game.  We want the NZ Govt to allow MetService to free up this vital service - not a dig at MetService as they are contracted by the Govt and I believe the NZ Govt dictates what is to be free and what isn't.
