BBC weather website changed

[LynM]

I use Netweather too and occasionally visit their forum. You can get very detailed info on there too, but it does cost. I have their 5 minute rainfall radar for my postcode (and any other) and that defintiely has its advantages.

Find the Met Office preferable to the Beeb......

7 day charts, fog charts, synoptic charts, more maps than you shake a stick at and loads of other info as well.

Thank you. I agree that Metcheck is better that the BBCs new format but I still prefer the BBCs older style format. On the new look BBC weather site I can't even find a way to complain about the new look charts!

Chuckle , I agree, we do all use what suits us best. And the maps mostly originate from the Met Office. It's a good job we're not all flower pots only wanting the same thngs

I love that site - an email from them is my cue to look at the radar then decide if I need to set my camera's up in our back lounge .
