salokcinnodrog Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 I use Metoffice on my phone as well as the app installed by Samsung as well as checking BBC regularly. All 3 are giving wet weather for at least one day this weekend. I've noticed that forecasts are changing regularly, I can check for 2 or 3 days ahead, then 24 hours later get a totally different forecast. kevtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higham1987 Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Yr.no is a Norwegian weather App, but look for your location and translate to English, just as good as any other 👍 yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Met Office invite civilians to submit data from their personal weather stations to add to the data set. No idea if it makes a difference or not. I've used all sorts over the years but now just go by the BBC. Let's face it, the weather here can change at the drop of a hat so no-one can really have massive confidence in the longer range data. kevtaylor, Higham1987 and salokcinnodrog 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm honestly finding Met Office totally different to the BBC, can't understand why, MET Office saying next to no rain this week, BBC says raining daily. MET Office is the one thats proving to be more accurate at the moment, or it has been on my trips so far, strange! Unless my data for BBC is not refreshing from when I looked days before?

emmcee Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Xc weather or "Windy app". But as has been said, the weather can change at the drop of a hat so none are 100% accurate in my opinion. kevtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just you, I've had totally different forecasts from the BBC to MetOffice. kevtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
