Hi, we were planning on a camping trip for this coming weekend in Porthmadog. We really don't want to cancel because of the weather as the reason for the trip is our son's birthday on Sunday.

Can anyone recommend a site with accurate weather forecasts? Have checked weatheronline.co.uk and it's not looking good!

Thanks

Claire

www.weather.co.uk has an hour-by-hour breakdown so you can plan you're arrival between showers.

Although, if the weather forcast on there looks bad, try the bbc weather, it's generally a bit more optimistic.

I use Accuweather, but if it sounds really bad on that one, then I try Metcheck and a few others to see if they're forecasting better weather

First time ive seen the acuweather site, weather looks better on that one.

Anyone done real comparisons with others to see wich are most accurate in the real world?

All i need is a website that tells me when i will get rid of my rotten cough and cold! lol
