I use Met Check (http://www.metcheck.com). They always seem pretty accurate.

here in east suffolk i think the teletext (page 152 here) on itv is the most accurate for weather in the east.

I've never tried metcheck. But will look now.

ah, alright chris

i see your in diss...... funnily enough i look your way.

I work a 7 mile strip along the coast upto about 8 miles inland and most times no matter how much it is raining there is always somewhere on my round that it isn't.

A local farmer where i clean told me its due to being between the river blyth at southwold to the south and the waveney to the north and west. Which 'apparently' is which route the rain clouds follow.

There does seem something in it..

Look out the bedroom window, if is raining, great back to bed, if its not, go back to bed and check out the window 1/2 hour later, hopefully it will be raining by then. ;D
