What's happened, where has the site gone? Is Bruce OK?

Dunno. Last posting from Bruce that I can see was 21st March. As to his
blog, I'm seeing:

"xmetman.wordpress.com is no longer available.

The authors have deleted this site."


Exactly. Given that Bruce was so keen I fear that something has happened. I
cannot believe that he has bowed to pressure from the Met Office or
elsewhere to remove his blog, why should he?


If it is a non profit use the Met waives the copyright as far as I know but the legality of preventing anyone freely assisting the public in an educational role is at liberty to publish quite a lot of their stuff -again it is only as far as I know.

Hope he is OK.
