Where do you guys go for a weather/cloud forecast?

[heathenwoods]

I use accuweather.com a lot for general forecasts and, although accuweather have one, I use 7timer.com for their astronomy forecast.

Although at the moment I usually just guess, "Cloud with fog in the morning and evening," and I'm usually right.

Thanks H'woods - all that guessing - you must work for the Met Office....

I use The Weather Outlook a link I found in another post on here, as I find it shows a nice clear table of the next 7 or 14 day forecast.

Look outside usually - everything else is guesswork!

I've offered my Intuitive Weatherometer Windowmethod 2b but they've said no thanks!

Some other interesting links coming up... astronomy does seem to come with a built-in weather forecasting sub-interest!

The main site I use is sat24.com. It shows you the recent movements of the clouds and I make a guess based on that.

I generally stick to what BBC weather man or lady of the day says. Been rather rubbish recently with fog at nights.

Saturday's observing session was over even before i got the mount & scope out due to the fog....

Bad times

If it looks like it might get clear i leave this running and just click and do a reload so it updates the time...

I use this as well as BBC 24 hour forecast Met Office: Europe: Infrared satellite imagery If you play the loop you can get a pretty good idea at what is happening.
