What online weather forecast do you use?

[Glendine]

Hi All,

As deer stalkers we are prone to be avid weather watchers whether
We like it or not.

I have being using an online weather service but it’s not given Me
the forecast I want. So out of interest who do you use that you find to be very reliable.

Many thanks,
Glendine.

Glendine,
I find XCWeather to be reliable.

BBC is good enough for me:
BBC Weather - Beaconsfield
Gives 10 days of forecast with Sunrise/Sunset as well

Glendine.

+1
I use BBC Weather too and within a couple of days is very accurate!

If you work on the theory
Scottish weather
Warm rain in summer
Cold rain in winter
Goes dark at night. That's about as accurate as it gets

Met office is quite good.

I also use this website all over the world and find it excellent. It was out by 15 minutes on Friday with a prediction of rain in France!!

I usually check three different ones - Met Office, BBC and Accuweather - I put most faith in the Met Office one.

Patrick A,

Thats what im afraid off the weather in Ireland up to now has being pretty good and guess what just as the deer season opens this Sunday the rain returns. I used www.yr for the weather information and its saying rain.
Hopefully this time the are wrong (fingers crossed)

Glendine.

+1 for the BBC. It's pretty accurate a day or two in advance. It gives you five days worth but acknowledges things change and so it's updated pretty regularly. You might see a rainy weekend coming on a Monday, but a couple of days later it may change to fine. Or the opposite!

I think whichever service you use, accuracy isn't real good more than a couple of days ahead.

XC weather or Windguru.

Accuweather is great never far wrong

Metcheck gives you good wind speeds and directions as well as LOCAL last light/first light times at the bottom of the page. Usually very accurate too!

For a short range, am I likely to get wet forecast, you can't beat:

* Will it Rain Today? | Rain radar for the UK | Going to rain? | MeteoGroup

Otherwise, a mix of:

* Metcheck.com - Accurate Weather Forecasts and so much more...
* Wind Map - Britain Observations
