Vegetable Gardeners Use the MetOffice for Weather Forecasts

Posted by TopVeg - January 17th, 2008

TopVeg is proud to have permission from the MetOffice to display their logo and have a link to the MetOffice weather page. The logo is shown here, and the link to the MetOffice weather page may be activated by clicking here.

On the MetOffice weather page there is a box to insert a postcode, which results in the weather forecast for that particular area. Long term forecasts are also available.

Vegetable gardeners are at the mercy of the weather. Forecasts are invaluable, to alert gardeners to protect crops from frost or drought. Before watering the garden, it is worth checking if rain is forecast. This prevents wasting time and water.
