As a matter of habit, I check the weather forecasts. Usually I look on the BBC weather forecast and the Met Office weather forecast. Rarely do these agree.
As an example, the Met Office forecast shows the risk of thunder at tea time. The BBC forecast has no mention of this.
Now, I know forecasting the weather in the UK is not a precise science, but I would have expected more agreement just a few hours ahead!
The BBC don't use the Met Office for normal forecasts. They use the cheapest bidder, MeteoGroup.
