Im curious as to how the met office weather warning system works. Why
is there such a disparity between the alerts shown on
http://uk.weather.com/weather/alerts/
where there are weather warnings for a large number of areas and
http://www.met-office.gov.uk/weather/europe/uk/uk.html
where there is only one issued. Surely if warnings are needed it would
be nice if people could easily access them.

Sarah,
have you seen
http://www.met-office.gov.uk/publics.../warnings.html ?
Not that it tells you which are made available where.

Regards,

Thanks Tom - I hadnt seen that, nice to see the descriptions. Gosh the
met office run a complicated site! It would be nice to think that they
could publish all the warnings in an easily accesible/obvious place for
joe public with a clickable link to the descriptors of types of warnings
page. Ah well!
