    This might be of interest for some but costs enough.

    I have been using this for a couple of weeks and have been very impressed with it. Will incorporate it in my new site personal website soon.
    Basically it takes your location into account when making a forecast all from your home weather station data and using most weather models and much more.

    It has been highly accurate for my location in terms of temperature and rainfall. It is also useful on summer days and foresees sea breeze, elevation and cloud cover.

    It is also useful for winter when snow is forecast. For mountain locations when snow is forecast it gives you a forecasted depth again for your location. This is only a tad of info and 100% enjoy this system.

    This model has predicted this wet weather from last Saturday and gave me a warning on Wedensday, all from my data and using most models.

    A very useful read.

    Looks interesting Snowbie, pretty pricy though, very keen to se what kind of output you get from it.
    Can you input data from more than one station (hint hint...)?
    I'm sure Arctictree and myself would be VERY interested in a more hilly forecast in winter months :D

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

    Yep pricy but very useful program. It actually helps in the forecasting of thunderstorms too taking in all parameters into account which sometimes GFS misses.

    Here is more info on the program.
