I find this one quite useful for the UK pressure patterns etc., on top of the MET Office GA info.

Lets you check METAR, TAF and NOTAMs worldwide for both airports and FIRs, as well as weather radar for the Nordic countries (Under the 'Briefing' tab at the top of the page). You can also file flight plans there.

Thank you CBS for the WindyTV link. Weird name, fantastic weather (and notams) - been watching for the last couple of weeks and it's really, really good!
Thanks!

You do have to call the AIS office at Oslo airport to confirm your flight plans after you've filed them. The phone number is +47 64 81 90 00
They are also very helpful on the phone. I've filed entire flight plans on the phone from the car on the way to the airfield.

Aviation Weather >> Europe > AVWX.info > metar taf sigmet notam winds aloft significant weather information is a useful compendium of European sources. Ignore the home page advertising and go through the drop down at top left.
This used to be the old euro.wx.propilot site.
