I look at the forecast on the BBC website and it is a complete waste of time. It asks you for your postcode but why it bothers is a mystery. I put in LE11 and it says Here is the forecast for East Midlands Airport (OK, not too far away) then it tells you that the observation station is in Watnall which is blooming miles away and the weather is significantly different.
But they have given out a frost warning for tonight - interesting to see if we get one. We got one on Saturday night but there was no warning. The BBC is useless, as you say they should just put a link up the the Met Office or even some Horoscope site, that would be more predictive.
