The mountain forecasts are unavailable on the new MetO site at

But, guess what?
They are up to date and available on the old site at
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/loutdoor.../peakdistrict/
peakdistrict_latest_pressure.html

Curious or what?

Cases of if it ain't broke don't fix it and KISS I should imagine.

The old site works and presented information clearly, the new one is a heap
of stinking poo that doesn't work.

The new site tries to be clever and a "great web experience" it's anything
but simple.
