What's a really good one, with map details of rain etc, although l think it's to be mostly dry this month.
Best weather apps.

I like yr.no. Don’t use maps on it but their 10 day forecast is generally more accurate than the Met Office (and they’re only a couple of miles from me! 
)
They’re not perfect, none of them are, but you get a good idea of the trends for the longer range forecast.

As above, yr.no seem to be more accurate than most, I also use RainToday for their radar on showery days.

look at yr quite a bit but being a island in the middle of nowhere it can be hit and miss a bit some areas right on the money other areas it's a bit off local met service I think has a dart board they pick the weather from some days
most of the time use a windows app called lookoutside
tends to be the best one I use not good long range but right on the money for current weather there is also a cloud based program called. looktothesky still not realy long range but can be ok for a hour or two ahead

The Weather Channel App from IBM is the best we've found here esp. the radar
met office one here but weather forcastings not a precise industry is it .... theyre the only guys i know who get paid even when theyre wrong sometimes its so well to hang seaweed up lol.
how times have changed tho, i can remmeber a time when the only other option to telly or radio one was to ring up RAF Chivenor and get the fly boys forecast. ,now trha was as accurate most of the time as you would get............

I've always used the Met Office app but it is not so good as it was.
They change the forecast so often it's more a commentary on the current weather.

XC very easy to use on PC, Metcheck make it up usually, None of them as accurate as you would have thought they should be.
I find Weather Underground quite good
Just put your location in the search bar.

I’ve just put in a weather station and it’s linked to Wunderground so I can see the data. Remotely
i thought it was always raining in Tavi anyway
Lol
funnily enough They say that around here as well, mainly i suppose because the Moor is to the SW and that sort of makes sense.

aamoi Did you see the Red arrows Today? looked up about just after 5 pm and they went over, icouldnt believe it, then just as they passed they let out some blue trails as if to purge their tanks or something ,they were heading due West but should be going up country as ive read it seems , come this way because of the way the runways send them then do a big wide turn around i suppose
