Monitoring The Weather

For the next five days i will be monitoring the weather to see if it actually matches the predictions made by the BBC weather website. After these five days i will then evaluate whether i would have gotten more accurate results if i had been prepared to pay for it, using for example the Met Office's weather service. The BBC website looks clear and simple to understand, and aesthetically pleasing with its bright colours and images. The information looks valid and relevant.

Tuesday: The prediction for today was that the minimum temperature would be 14c and that the maximum would be 17c. Today it was 15c, so i would say that the prediction was very accurate today. It also said that there would be clouds and mild sunshine, which was also correct.

Wednesday: The prediction for today was that the minimum temperature would be 15c and the maximum 17c, and also that again it would be cloudy with a hint of sunshine. It was a cloudy day and i did see some signs of sunshine so this was again accurate. Today the temperature was in fact 16c, so was again very accurate. If BBC weather is correct it will be a sunny day tomorrow-fingers crossed!

Thursday: The weather today is supposed to be sunny with a maximum of 16c and a minimum of 15c. The weather is in fact the maximum of 16c, however it is yet again another cloudy day, with just a pinch of sunshine, so BBC has let me down a little bit i must admit.

Friday: Today the temperature is 17c and it has een a very sunny day. The actual temperature therefore agreed with the prediction, and the actual weather, which was lvely and sunny exceeded the prediction weather of cloud with a little bit of sunshine! What a lovely day-Tomorrow should be even more sunny if BBC weather is correct!

Saturday: Today has been a very sunny day indeed! There have been temperatures between 15c and 16c so again BBC weather has been very reliable!

After 5 days evaluating the weather,i believe that i can honestly trust BBC weather to tell me a correct weather forecast. I feel as though even if i had used a weather forecast which i paid for, the results would have been pretty much the same, if not just a very tiny bit more precise.
