does anyone use an accurate weather forecast , i look at the bbc, and met office for my local area to try to plan my work, but they are usually completely different forecasts, i just think in this day and age and technology that the forecasts would be more accurate

I use this
https://www.netweather.tv/live-weather/radar
It's about 15 mins behind live data.
You can upgrade to live and ad free.
It's pretty accurate and you can see what's coming your way!

Use an app called Dark Sky. It’s a few quid to buy but worth every penny.

I just use the bbc app for my local area.....its ok....I work in most bad weather so unless its prolonged heavy rain or ice/snow I've no need to plan work around it most days....
They often get rain forecasts wrong anyway....

I look out the window.

I also use it, it’s amazing, especially when predicting rain, it’s almost always spot on, to the minute.

I always find Met office pretty good

Generally don’t worry about the weather forecast , if it’s to wet or windy we take the day off if it’s ok we work , no forecast is ever going to be that accurate looking out the window or just getting on with the job until it’s to bad is the way we deal with it .

Apologies a bit OT... Guys who employ; do you pay full day rate, reduced, or other arangement for not working wet day? thanks

We pay a normal days rate but obviously no bonuses, but to be fair it’s rare that we have to take time off for rain it’s usually wind that’s the issue ware we are. I try to juggle work to different areas if weather is bad so we are still working .

Not round here it's not. As op says BBC and met office rarely in alignment, and annoyingly one is no more accurate than the other, yet custys take it as written in stone.
