Cinnamon Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I have used Metcheck for ages now & find it really reliable for hourly weather forecasts. However,for the past week or so I cannot get it working - anyone else having the same problems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey Lucy Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Yes me! For the last couple of weeks it's not been giving me today's weather but I could look at tomorrow's, for the past week I've even lost that. It's really annoying as their forecasts are much more accurate than the BBC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlo Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Ditto Usually when there are glitches on it, they make some mention on the Home Page but there has been no reason given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 It's not working right at all. Just checked the home page and at the bottom of the page it says....... Finally, apologies for the problems with the forecasts that some of you are experiencing, the problem is in the hands of the techie guys and hopefully will be fixed asap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 It is one of my regular weather sites, and I haven't been able to get anything on it either. I don't actually find it that acurate to be honest, I prefer BBC and Met Office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Same here - although I agree it hasn't been reliable for some time now. I've been using Accuweather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I haven't been able to use it for a while either. Relieved it's not just me, but annoyed because it is so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey Lucy Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Same here - although I agree it hasn't been reliable for some time now. I've been using Accuweather. Thanks Lesley, I'm going to give AccuWeather a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Yes, I can't get it either. It sort of worked for a bit, but now doesn't work at all. I've found it to be giving ridiculous forecasts recently e.g. max temp of 7 degrees, which is clearly isn't, at least not in the past week or so. It works fine on DH's blackberry, but not on the computer. I use either BBC or Weather Underground now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 It's back!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I've been using Accuweather. Thanks Lesley, I'll use Accuweather from now on. I just googled Metcheck and found out some rather unsavoury information about the owner (due to content I will not be posting links on a family forum!), and out of principle will not use it again now.

Cinnamon Posted June 26, 2010 Author Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hmmm,I think they still have a few problems. Hope so anyhow. They have forecast me for 199mph winds on Monday evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlo Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I can't get it to work again I will go and have a look at accuweather now and also see what there is to learn about Metcheck's owner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
