Therefore, all observations since 20/apr/2016 should be as correct as the information provided by the Member States to EIONET. To date, 05/may/2016 we are still troubleshooting (in contact with Generalitat de Catalunya and EIONET) a discrepancy of 1h of difference in observations for Catalunya. ** \\ | ||
