Accurate weather forecast

[Maps05]

Hi, my daughter will be going on Sunday for 6 days and I have been trying to get a weather forecast for her. I have looked at 4 different sites and have 4 different forecasts...? Does anyone know which site has the most reliable information. Many thanks in advance.

Carrie Cat lives in the DLP area, so hopefully she'll be along later to give you an idea of the forecast. I always use accuweather.com - its usually been accurate for my trips to DLP.

I always use metcheck.com - it has long range forcasts up to 14 days in advance, and last time I went to DLP, I looked up the forecasts a week before I went - they were still more accurate than the forcasts posted in the hotel every day!

Hello

Right now it's blowing a fair bit (my shutters are rattling something crazy) and it feels like the temperature has dropped about 10°, in fact it's only 5 but with the wind
It's the 1st day in ages that I put a long sleeved top on to go out shopping
Looking at the thermometre it's 18° rather than 23° yesterday but we were supposed to have rain today so can't moan

I use http://fr.weather.com/weather/10day-Chessy-FRIF0126 and it's not looking too bad for next week withstanding Monday where there's a 40% change of rain but seeing as we haven't had any for getting on 6 weeks it has to come sometime

18 degrees? That counts as a heatwave up here in Aberdeen!

That's my only full day there
Oh well, better make sure I don't forget to pack the ponchos.

When you've lived here through 35° non stop in the summer, 18° is below freezing

Seeing as it's your birthday weekend it will hold off till Tuesday

It will still be hot, high of 27°, so a bit of a shower in the afternoon might be nice

Hope you have a great time and a wonderful birthday celebration

It was like that the last time we went in July 2009. Is it often like that Carrie, or were we just unlucky/lucky last time?

Personally we found it too hot, especially after becoming acclimatised to Scottish weather, but it was really wonderful weather for people looking for a bit of sun. I hope we have it a bit cooler this year in July.
