Weather forecast

[padster]

Trying to get a forecast for next week as fidhing on middle tweed
used BBC and uk.weather.com and both have completely different forecasts for next week one say sunny monday tuesday (BBC) and other rain.

Anyone know of somewhere I can get an accurate forecast for St Boswells area for next week

theyr.net used to be one of the best but they have gone subscription only i see, anything over 24 hours is just a best guess anyway.

Try www.metcheck.com works okay mostly

Good starting places for weather info are

www.greatweather.co.uk

for general stuff, and

www.winterhighland.info/weather/

for those of us desperate to know about snow melt on the Dee and Spey.

For short-term rainfall prediction, the BBC site is quite good

www.bbc.co.uk/weather/ukweather/rain.shtml

This shows where rain has fallen (from radar images) plus predictions for the next day and a half. You can zoom in on specific regions to get reasonable accuracy.

For three-day rainfall modelling I have found the following to be good although it is less penetrable:

pages.unibas.ch/geo/mcr/3d/meteo/

There are two models (called ETA and NMM) - click on the top two white blobs under Maps on the table in the top banner - then on the next page click on ALL opposite 3 hr precipitation.

Metcheck is not reliable beyond a couple of days in my experience although it can be useful for fuelling optimism ahead of a trip!

Looks like it is rain, rain and more rain for the Borders until about Thursday, then it may rain again shortly after it has stopped.
No catches so far on fishtweed website for today.
