Shame really the long range weather forecasts was a handy tool....

I stopped using this a while ago and just use the Met office site.

UK weather forecast - Met Office

Hi Dave,

May this Christmas bring you lots of laughter and happiness....Metcheck is no good any more I now use AccuweatherUK which is probably better than metcheck was and also gives longrange forecasts as well.Look forward to bumping into you on the banks of the Wye or the White Lion next year.


Cheers,

Dickie

Hi David
having used Metcheck previously, someone suggested this site below

XCWeather - Forecast for Ringwood
does the job!

I have started using this one and it seems more accurate

Met Office: Weather and climate change

Yeah, my advice would be to use a site that isn’t owned and run by a convicted sex offender!

Metoffice.gov.uk seems to be fairly reliable.

Metcheck no good

Agree with last thread, Metcheck is not reliable both in forecasts and performance!
My work is reliant on the weather and I gave up on Metcheck a long time ago, the most reliable is metoffice weather, it gives wind speed, gusts, weather at 2 hourly intervals. As a market trader I need to know what the weathers doing, always stick with metoffice and you wont go far wrong.
For rising/dropping river levels the Environment Agency has a great facility on its website, I find very useful.

hope this helps

Metcheck imo is a waste of time, the most reliable is the New Met Office BETA.

UK forecast - Met Office

and not one dimensional.

I had similar problems viewing metcheck but after clearing the DNS cache in windows the site is now viewable without the 404 errors.
Here is how to do it very quick and easy.
