What weather forecast site do you use?

Kagganz · « **on:** January 21, 2009, 06:17 »

I've just been reading through a thread talking about the best weather forecast sites.

What do you all use?

Please use 'other' as Met Office .... slaps own wrists VERY hard.

May I point out that you've left off the Met Office, from where these others derive their forecasts?

I don't think they should just come under "Other"!

I'm a met office girl myself too!

Oh sorry have I?

I took these from the thread I didn't know there was another 'main' one :? unless I missed it :roll:

I do have a peek at the other sites, but I always head for this page first...

Tells you where the rain is and by clicking the "play" button you can get a fair idea of where it's heading.

Other tabs show you the forecast.

I know they get their info from the Met office but I always use the BBC weather center feed on Firefox,it's usually pretty accurate but the info comes from Quorn which is about 12 miles away from us so sometimes a little out.

The Met Office do a "Weather Gadget" for Firefox direct.

Thanks DD,have installed the gadget and will see how accurate that is.

The rain map should be spot on to the last hour or so!

Don't like the forecast though.

I'll have a look through the other sites to try & find one with less rain!
