Papua New Guinea National Weather Service (PNGNWS) forecasts for regional and provincial towns and cities are now accessible only through paid subscriptions. The 24-hour forecasts, issued from 8:00 AM local time, are no longer freely available. Access requires purchasing one of several subscription packages offered by Post Courier, ranging from daily to annual options, and including eBook bundles. The announcement was made via a link on the Post Courier website, but details of the forecast itself are restricted. This change impacts public access to crucial weather information across the country. The PNGNWS previously provided this data without charge. Interested parties must now pay to view the forecasts.
