Observed time of weather

Does anyone know how often the weather is updated when "Auto update the weather" is checked? I've had the "Observed" time over an hour, but would like to keep it around 15 minutes. Is there anyway to adjust this?
TIA

Hi Mardoc,
when you use the search function before posting, you very often can find the answer for your question without posting

Markus, this is how YoWindow update works.
The current weather is updated every hour, but the weather from METAR station is updated in a range 30 - 90 minutes.
When you update the weather manually you get the current weather on METAR available on weather station.
So manual update is more accurate.
It is a challenge to make auto-update to know exact moment when the weather on METAR station changes.
And I am not ready for this challenge yet.

Hi Mallorca,
Thanks for not blasting me. I must have forgotten to turn my brain on that day
. I hopefully won't do that again.
