What is the main difference between the UK Met Office WOW & WOW-NL (Netherlands I believe?) as per the Weather nets in MB Pro? Australia's BOM also runs a partnership with the UK office http://bom-wow.metoffice.gov.uk/
Should there be any difference?
WOW - Different Country versions?

Re: WOW - Different Country versions?
WOW for UK and NL use the same URL to report data. I doubt that Australia will do the same.
Re: WOW - Different Country versions?
The documentation specifies that the WOW API is the same for all participating countries.

The URL is the same also:
NL en Australia are using their servers for displaying the WOW data.

All maintenance and development is done by the UK Met-office/WOW organization.The URL to send your request to is: http://wow.metoffice.gov.uk/automaticreading?

Re: WOW - Different Country versions?
Thanks for giving this additional info. Following this logic the WOW feature of Meteobridge can also be used by Australian users to feed "their WOW" network.
Re: WOW - Different Country versions?
Have been feeding WOW (via MB) in AU (via the BOM page) now for several years, works fine. Since the WOW-NL was only a recent addition (April 2, 2016) I thought it may have been something a little different?
