I notice as part of the revamp to the Met Office website they are
now giving 30 min radar images.


But still the same number of images so it now only goes back 3hrs.

With the 30min interval this might not be a problem but 6hrs allowed
you to see stuff 6 hrs into the past and allowed you to fairly good
guessitmates for arrival time 10 or so hours into the future.

Updates about 20 past the hour, just loaded the page at 2119 and the
most recent image was 2030, not so good. Reload at 2122 and I get the
2100 image.


I've tweaked the code by changing the array size [1] and have it going back
some 6 hours now from my desktop.

Change LastImgNum to 11 and add more FrameNum[]
