Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

It's awful. I can't work out what the forecast is for different areas.

London is all lumped together so you can only see the difference between London and other counties on the local forecast. I do like that it's green again as I hated the brown.

I know the BBC have received complaints (and some praise) but if I'd like to collate complaints (or praise) from you and send them something comprehensive.

The website is weird. It changes every few hours and seems rarely right for here. It's easier to look out of the window.

Bring back the sticky rain clouds that fell off the telly map.

I haven't dared look at the website or app yet. Why blue?

We knew where we were with those.

I don't like the new forecast at the bottom that shows the week ahead with absolutely nothing useful other than the potential temperature. It's up and off so fast that you have to pause the telly to see it.

To be honest, i don't bother looking at the BBC weather at all now.

Since the BBC dumped the MET office a few years ago as the source of there forecasts and use there own forecasting, they have been rubbish. I much prefer the MET office themslves.

Also the BBC are weather pessimists

Since the 1987 debacle they've been terrified to forecast a sunny day

Cinn! I was thinking about you when I found out Kestrels had closed. I hope you are well.

WTFWeather? That's how I feel about the new Beeb weather maps so maybe I should look at this app.

The Met Office contract has only just ended. They had to extend it and agree that Meteogroup would use Met Office data for big weather events. The BBC has so many private sector outsourced providers for just about everything.
