Weather outlook - which site/s

bingoboy · 26th October 2002, 22:32

Is there a site out there that can be recommended as reasonably OK for forecasting the weather for the next 7 to 14 days ???

I am interested in the UK (specifically Engand and Wales).

7-14 days???? We're lucky if they can tell us what it will be like tomorrow.

Bingoboy,

Have a look at

http://www.farmgate.co.uk/weatherframeset.html

I use it as a preliminary "is it worth even thinking about it" guide

I use weather.co.uk -- gives 10-day forecasts, though obviously it doesn't usually turn out exactly as forecast. Amusing sometimes to compare & contrast with the 5-day forecasts on bbc.co.uk/weather

I use www.metcheck.com - although the accuracy is, well, variable to say the best!

I like www.onlineweather.com. Choose data centre,then forecast charts,I am a sad person who prints the synoptic, then sees what we actually get by comparison. Think the site is quite good.

This site has loads of stuff including 120 hour surface pressure charts from the Met Office and 144 hour surface pressure/precipitation charts from the FNMOC

Thanks - I shall view all the sites mentioned with the appropriate level of caution and make my bookings/plans with all due optimism.
