I used to use metoffice, but now dont look, 1 because it made me think it was going to be raining for weeks on end, and 2 most of the time it was completely wrong.

i find accuweather.co.uk's hourly forecast is 90% of the time exactly spot on. i used to use weather.com and bbc weather too to get an average, but theyre full of crap. i know accuweather can get ti horribly wrong but for me  its pretty good. best to check it last thing at night and then in the morning as it can change a lot!

if your a trad cleaner never look last thing at night if you have a big day on, it will make you restless, if your wfp dont even look, just get out there and clean ;)
