Update re. offline /group_workspaces/jasmin4/ - please check your code!
The following group workspaces are still offline:

UK weather station records now freely available to all MIDAS Open
Measurements of historical weather variables across the UK are now freely available to all, through the Met Office “ MIDAS Open ” dataset held at CEDA.
