Data Accuracy and Attribution

The meteorological data, observations and forecasts provided by Townsville.Today are gathered from a variety of reputable sources, stored and processed on our own servers to provide the data and visualisations we display. We strive for accuracy and timeliness of information, and in most cases information is collated by our systems within minutes of publishing by a data provider. However, the nature of meteorological forecasting, automated data collection and fully-automated electronic transmission of this data means that the quality, accuracy and timeliness of the data cannot be guaranteed.

Delays or disruptions due to technical problems, system limitations, data transmission issues, or environmental factors may impact the availability of data without notice. The forecasts provided by our data partners are based on predictive models that involve assumptions and estimations, and while they provide valuable guidance, they are not infallible and cannot be considered accurate. Variability in weather systems also means that local conditions may differ from what is shown on the platform. The information provided by Townsville.Today may include data which is not quality controlled or validated and may include errors or inaccuracies.

Do not rely solely on the observations, forecasts, warnings or alerts on this platform for decision-making where safety, health, property protection or significant financial outcomes are involved. Always consult official sources such as the Bureau of Meteorology, the Townsville Disaster Dashboard, local emergency services for information and advice.
