This weekends weather predictions?

Post by mickkk »

Well weather boffins, what does the more educated think the weather is going to be like this weekend. I'm personally planning a trip to Dundee on Saturday, but I'm sure a lot of people keep an eye out on the fff weather predictions. They seem a lot more accurate than willy weather now days.

Cheers Mickey

Beautiful

Might see you out on the blue :-)
If there is water and it holds fish, then it is fun trying to fool them into eating what you offer!!

Especially when you can see them!

Your in for a world of pain on the law of averages if you put much credibility in what seabreeze or willy weather say about it mippa. :)

Try going here on Thursday or Friday afternoon to get a prediction and go through the different time phases. This will give you the best information available. http://www.bom.gov.au/marine/wind.shtml ... ar&tz=AEDT

Just have a think where all the other sites glean their information from in the first place, unless they just make it up?

I agree that the various models get the same info.
Its just what they do with it from there. Look at OZ cyclone chasers during the season. All sites from here, UK, eurpoe, usa and china get the same basic input info but their models vary massively.
Its got me tossed how the UK models are more consistently accurate than our own BOM models when they both use the same data
