Weather forecast a bit wobbly

Eccles · 19-10-2006, 05:37 PM

I see the weather forecast you guys pay for was more than slightly off the beam today: They reckon maximum wind speed would be 9 mph and I reckon the reality for a good chunk of the afternoon was more like 29 mph. Tomoorows forcast windspeed I will take with a pinch of salt too. They can't be getting their info from the Met Office because that illustrious body is suggesting force 6 tomorrow = at least 25 mph.

Think that we'll just scrap it. Just need to make time to alter the site about.

I regularly use this one, Mat. Might be expensive, though?

I think that the accuweather one was about £50/month.

BBC seem to have changed their terms of use though. They always prohibited commercial use (technically the site is commercial even if it doesn't make money). I'll check it out at some point.
