Hi,

Had to play about with site to ensure wasn't giving you a bum steer...but if you follow these simple steps you should be able to get forecast for your area and save it in your favourites and just how you keep in system tray have no idea lol

main web site addi is metoffice.go.uk
When page opened navigate to bottom of page and then page up twice and then arrow down to "view a regional forecast" Choose London and South east in combi box. On next page I paged down 8 times and then arrowed down a couple and you should find edit box for postcode. I tried one I found for "Roehampton", entered that and entered on "go to postcode location", and and came up with forecast page for Kingston Upon Thames. That page again I navigated to bottom of page and then paged up 11 times and that starts you around start of a 5 day forecast.

Hope if some use but hell if I move again, now know how to set up new page for a different location lol

Be lucky

Mark

Hi,

Not sure about sitting in system tray as my usage of this PC is tres simple... However, I use the met office site which I have found easy to use and you can just whack in postcode, saved setting and kept it in favourites and is usually quite accurate. Pages are as withmost sites a bit full of unnecessary rubbish but normally I just navigate to bottom of page and then page up a number of times until I hit the right section, bit of a faff but works. I have also tried "Will it rain today", but couldn't really get on with it...

Good luck

Mark
