...Other than metcheck and the BBC. Does anyone have a favourite?
Thanks

Metoffice, then use the data to forecast your own!
The rainfall radar is particulary useful
did you mean sites that only forecast good weather?

2nd Marty's link - it always the one I use for snowboarding in Scotland and it's normally spot on.

Surely if they were any good they'd all say the same thing and it wouldn't matter which you used?

Mountain Rescue mostly use mwis, according to my mum's partner who's in the Langdale team.
Metcheck is quite handy for general weather imo.
.. Nonsense Uplink. That's a very dated opinion. UK Met office charts these days can be remarkably good, and have improved enormously over the last 20 years. It's easy to knock them. perhaps you have to have been a weather nut for a long time to have seen the very real improvements.
Last bank holiday weather was pretty much spot on the forecast for the whole weekend, and it had been looking that way from the beginning of the previous week. You must be prepared to ignore many (typical) radio headlines, and look through the dross at the real data.
The forecast that I see on the BBC most nights that looks forward 3- 4 days often changes as the day in question gets closer
On Sunday's forecast they had rain forecast for here this morning - it's still wall to wall blue sky as yet
I still don't think anything over 48hrs is accurate enough to rely on
BTW - I'm not knocking them or wanting anything else - it was merely an observation
Another vote for MWIS - if you're in the coverage area.
