Whither weather?

[nineveh_uk]

As is my wont I am looking obsessively at the weather forecast for where I shall be going on holiday in a month's time, in this case St Anton am Arlberg and St Gallen. www.yr.no, the Norwegian weather service which appears to have weather forecasts for everywhere in the world, accurately (at least when I've been there) and in English*, is forecasting 4C max next Thursday and Friday. I think that on this occasion I'm going to assume they're very, very wrong**.

Anyway, it won't be my problem because for once I have booked myself a week off in Oxford and on Wednesday I am going to be in London for the athletics.

*Also Bokmål (Norwegian), Nynorsk (Norwegian with even more terrifying spelling), Kvääni (Kven), and Davvisámegiella (Northern Sami).

**That said, Bergfex has 12/11C listed, so not as wrong as I'd hope if it were my holiday next week.

My partner (who uses about six different weather forecasts simultaneously, which is great for holiday planning but a pain if, say, you want to know if it's a good idea to leave the washing out) says bergfex.ch is usually pretty accurate

Bergfex does seem good at mountain weather. On the downside, they don't predict really far ahead, but given the issues around mountains, that's probably part of why they're good.

For washing I'm quite fond of raintoday.co.uk
