    • Forecasting the Weather

      MM GFS Chart Viewer
      We have devised a user friendly GFS chart viewer. This one covers extensive atmospheric variables. It is the number 1 used chart viewer on MM.
      Wetter3
      Wetter3 the German site offers an amazing 'Global Forecasting System' chart viewer to those wanting a thoroughly comprehensive forecasting tool. Essential to anyone wanting to learn to forecast the weather.
      Weather Online Expert
      A real up and coming powerful tool for the forecaster/enthusiast. Covers a multitude of forecasting models.
      Meteogroup NCEP
      An up and coming recently established platform that covers a vast array of data for countries across Europe. A powerful tool that cries out to be bookmarked.
      Wetter3 Vertical
      This is for the slightly more advanced and technically minded. Instead of simulating GFS output for horizontal grid, it takes it to a new level and simulates the vertical plain. Essential for forecasting Mesoscale.
      Lightning Wizard
      An essential tool for the forecasting of mesoscale and convection. Covers a considerable extension of the synoptic scale variables that are covered in other viewers.
      Estofex WX
      A little more difficult to navigate, but essentially covers similar mesoscale variables to Lightning Wizard. Quite handy as a complimentary tool.
      Stratospheric Research
      Every so often we have to delve a little higher up into the atmosphere to make a call. This link gives us some handy information.

    • Observing the Weather

      MO Rain Radar

      Rain Today
      Based on the Meteogroup precipitation radar this is a more flexible and versatile tool. Very handy for zooming into your location.
      Meteox Radar
      A wiser European scope precipitation radar, quite a nice complementary tool.
      Meteo Group Radar
      Similar to Rain Today, but the official source.
      Strikestar Lightning Detector
