Does anybody have a good Internet site for a Europe-wide view of what the weather is doing over the next, say, 14 days?
There are loads of sites where you can see, for example, the weather in La Rochelle, Trier, Gent, Piza, Lucerne, wherever...
My problem is that we have a 16-night return crossing booked, and absolutely no plans, so can head left, right, or straight on when we hit Calais.
In 16 nights, if I get my toe down, I could get to Catalonia, the South of France, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Czech rep, Denmark, even Croatia. But, I don't want to sit in the van in the rain in, say, Germany when it's blazing sunshine in Austria.
Do you see the problem? Yes, I could look at individual forecasts for various key places and build my own picture of what's happening Europe-wide, but it's be nice to have it laid out where I could see where the rain is and where the sun is. A bit like snow-forecast.com does for places like the alps.
Hi.
Try these two,the french one was from a member on here,i will try and find him again,its magic,the other one,well,the Vikings seem to get about OK!! LOL>
Thanks both. Yes, great for France, or Austria, or Italy, but what about ALL of Europe?
I've always used meteo.fr to decide where to go in France but what if I want to decide whether to go to spain, or germany, or Austria?
Yes, I can look at the weather forecast for individual towns or cities, but I want view of the whole of Europe, not just one country.
There are great regional sitres that'll show me the weather in the UK, the weather in Spain, or the weather in Italy, or the weather in Switzerland, but I want the whole of europe - I don't want to have to choose a country or a city.
When I come out of the tunnel, I can turn left and head for Belgium, Holland or Germany, or I can go stright on for France, switzerland or Italy, I can can pootle about the Nord pas de Calais, or drive on to Spain or Portugal - I simply want to know whereabouts in Europe the sun is going to be for the next 2 weeks.
Seems like a simple question, but seemingly impossible to answer?
Hi.
In your situation,i would ring NASA. 700 miles a day is about normal,so i don't think you will drive off the given area of weather in one day. LOL
THIS IS TONGUE IN CHEEK!!!. I am in drink!.
Perhaps you can get someone to do a weather map like one of my european road maps,scale 1mile=1mile,, Give Norbet Dis-entangle a bell,he will have the lorries to move it for you.
I do hope you find what you are looking for..and.. have a nice trip.wherever,if you do find a weather map,SHARE it like Clodhopper 2006.
Good man yourself.
Ted.
PS. Like i said,i am outside of some drink and felt the need of some humour,no offence meant
Thanks for all the suggestions people, I think I've found what i was looking for: >>Weather Online<< which has some rather groovy charts looking forward up to 14 days. Just click the 'Loop' button and watch your holiday weather unfold before your eyes
I particularly like the Accumulated Precipitation (Precipitation Accum), which shows that, over the next 14 days, it'll have been pretty wet across the Benelux countries.
And >>THIS<< is a nice 7-Day precipitation forecast (press the loop button), which is telling me that the Northern Atlantic coast of Spain is going to be pretty wet!
Hi Morph.
Looks like you are on to a winner,about teatime yesterday the thunder and lightning started,and RAIN!. This went on and off,then on last "Walkies!(Stagger hic,LOL) about midnight,Coimbra about 40k away on the coast north Portugal, was lit up as bright as day with the lightning.
Glad you have found what you want,and thanks for sharing it,have a good trip.
Ted.
