Where do people on here get their weather from ( websites etc,etc)

[Smudger55]

Just wondering where people get their weather predicted from as I have not come across any that are worth while

It took me ages to find a site which gave me what I wanted: sun vs. rain etc AND the wind strength and direction for several days - all on one page. Then I found: http://www.theweatheroutlook.com

Have a look - you'll need to enter your location. I tend to keep it on the '16-day setting', but only ever view 8 days (1 page) as I've found that forecasting ahead more than a few days is just so much guesswork.

Weather Underground - many farmers use it

Website is wunderground.com

Uses lots of aeronautical data and local weather stations. Most accurate I have used and has a handy 'app' for your phone too

I only get the weather no one else wants...cold winds, dull, rain....although that has been absent for a couple of weeks...so someone else must have nabbed it...lol

XCweather is as good as any. Don't expect much accuracy from any forecast more than 72hrs in advance.

 

[For want of a better word]

My Sugar Kelp is as accurate as any I have seen!

I live near the Cardon Hill TV mast, the weather here in Pensilva is described so...

If you can see the mast, it's going to rain, if you can't see the mast, it's raining.

Here endeth the weather forecast

I like WeatherPro, too. Like you say Steve, very detailed, and I find very accurate. Part of my liking stems from the fact that I have done some work with the company who write this app (MeteoGroup), and they are a very serious and credible global forecasting outfit who make most of their money providing forecasting feeds to the shipping and energy industries.

I've not tried any of the above - but I find BBC reliable.
