I have a question if someone can assist. I have been a bit busy today to watch a radar or storm tracker.

I was looking before to see what was going on and the time..

It annoys me that the BOM national loop uses UTC and the radar as well.

I understand it is necessary because of the time differences in different states.

However l did notice that the national loop runs 2 hrs behind the radar

Radar aays 4.30 to 5 UTC. So a half hour animation


How do you convert UTC to Melbourne time?


The national loop is showing 23.30 to 2.30 UTC. and the day of the month clicks over at 24.00hrs??

So that is 3 hr animation and it is old . 2hrs old in its last frame

Ok l am confused

So good to check what happened a few hours ago l guess.

If someone could elighten me regarding this strange time nomenclature,I would be grateful.
