Default A little bit of credit to new BBC forecasts

Here in Knaresborough, just on the east side of the Pennines, we often
experience a very noticeable rain shadow effect from said hills. Many
times I noted that heavy rain coming in, particularly from the NW, often
results in very little or no rainfall here, while the Pennines get a
soaking, and also areas less than 10 miles to east (e.g. Vale of York)
also get plenty of rain.
Anyway, on the BBC forecast for tomorrow's fronts, the now more detailed
rainfall "animation" also leaves a big dry band to the immediate east of
the Pennines, with rainfall on both sides of that.

So much as I despise the new scheme, maybe a little bit of credit is
due. But can we please have a north Atlantic synoptic chart &
quantitative wind data :-(

Anyway, it'll all be "live" on http://www.sbriggs.plus.com/weather
