Five forecasts, one answer

Met Office, Apple, YR, DWD and Tomorrow.io all get checked. We blend them by whichever has actually been most accurate lately, so you get one answer instead of five opinions.

The day at a glance

The picture is now. The graph underneath is the whole day, from six in the morning to ten at night. Drag either one and the temperature, the sky and the picture follow the hour you land on.

BBQ, mow, beer, walk

Each one tells you when. NOW means go, a time means it opens up later today, and a day means that's the next good one. Beer only asks whether it's OUT or IN.

Rain, and how much of it

When rain is coming we say when, and whether it turns heavy. The percentage is the chance of any; the marks underneath are how much: one for a shower, two for wet, three for a soaking.

The week, in plain words

Every day says what it is, like "Rain from ten" or "Mow it, tongs out". The wind arrow is coloured: green when it's calm enough to put things out, amber when it's windy enough to take them in.

We mark our own homework

Every forecast we make gets scored against real weather station readings. Have a look under Other stuff, then Accuracy. We publish the lot, including the bits we get wrong.

And the fun bit

There's a dad joke every day, under Other stuff in the bottom right. Rate it, share it, or submit your own and it goes up against everyone else's. The winner is announced on Sunday evening. Standards are low.
