Totally agree with previous posts.  We are going away this weekend and have to choose between either Yorkshire's east coast, north Wales, or the Lakes - depending on where has the best forecast.

I've been checking the forecasts over the last few days and it changes ALL the time.  And I'm talking big changes too e.g.  it's changed from 70% chance of rain in Anglesey to 10% chance. 

Then you have a fact that BBC, Met Office, Sky etc can't even agree - yet they use the same information to make the forecasts.

In my opinion this is the best site for 7 - 10 day forecasts, but I don't think it gives the all important wind speeds - unless I'm missing something

 None, I live in North Norfolk can tell you that it is bloody hot at the moment and doesn't feel like it's going to change for quite some time.

Bring your factor 40

Other countries that are surrounded by a large landmasses can predict future weather patterns fairly accurately, but we in the UK can be hit by any one of 5 different weather patterns and it is pot luck which one the weather forecasters think will be the most likely.

Also the infuence of each of these patterns on the other patterns will determine just how much of an effect each pattern will have. Hence the sometimes very changeable weather we can have.

All in all I think the weather forecasters do a fantastic job in very difficult circumstances.

As for a 30 day forecast. Can I suggest a Crystal Ball?

Why do gypsies not use contraceptives?

They've got Crystal Balls and can see it coming.

Hiya,

We too are going to Cromer for 3 nights at the end of July, Manor Farm, hoping for dry weather - not too hot I hope!
