Long ago, I set up a page to access the met office printable for
Yorks/Lincs,
http://www.meto.gov.uk/weather/europe/uk/yorkslincs_printable.html
along with the 5-day forecasts for Leeds, Doncaster & Sheffield,
http://www.meto.gov.uk/lib/includes/fsssi/city/leeds.html
http://www.meto.gov.uk/lib/includes/fsssi/city/doncaster.html
http://www.meto.gov.uk/lib/includes/fsssi/city/sheffield.html
all of which worked lovely with WebGet and Fresco but all of which now
no longer exist. I searched for substitutes giving the local weather at
a glance without too much extraneous matter and, I'm sorry to say, came
up with msn. This does throw up a javascript error but it doesn't seem
to affect the forecast information.
My new local weather look-up page is at
http://www.grough.btinternet.co.uk/weather/
which might give folks a few ideas. Any better ideas coming this way
are, of course, most welcome.
