I'm just wondering whether the Net weather extra feed for my website is actually using data for an area further north than where I'm based. If you compare the met five day forecast and the GFS forecast there's a large difference and there has been for sometime.

As you say, the data comes from GFS Pit - and I've just compared your 'week ahead' to that on http://www.xcweather.co.uk at Doncaster (the nearest to mighty Sheffield) for next week and it's identical. The Met obviously use their own data.  Be interested to know whose 3 or 5 day forecasts are more accurate....

We could plug your feed into our NMM models if you'd like - I'll drop you an email about it on Monday Posted Image

No email did you get distracted or has it been eaten by google?
