Activity 11-Birmingham Weather

Thursday 9th -monday 13th weather checks from
http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1113
and
http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/wm/birmingham_forecast_weather.html


Thursday
BBC Max 16°C
Met Office Max 16°C

Friday
BBC Max 17°C
Met Office Max 15°C

Saturday
BBC Max 16°C
Met Office Max 16°C

Sunday
BBC Max 15°C
Met Office Max 15°C

Monday
BBC Max 16°C
Met Office Max 16°C

Both websites gave similar results to the weather but finding the 5 day forecast took time on the met office web site due to the bad layout whereas it was easy to find on the bbc site also bbc gave more information and witha better layout it was easy to read and find whereas met office was all plain writing.
paying for the met office would be more suitable for people who just want weather and information on future predictions but not for people who just want a simple prediction and might resort to free predictions on the tv or teletext.
