HowsDaWeather provides UK weather forecasts at postcode level. Rather than a single national picture, it draws on five national forecast centres and accounts for terrain, so conditions in hilly or coastal areas are treated differently from those on flat ground. Forecasts are checked against readings from real rain gauges. The app is free, with no advertising and no tracking. It is built for anyone in the UK who wants to know what the weather will actually do where they are: commuters, walkers, gardeners, event organisers. Enter a postcode to see the forecast for that location, then open it as a standalone window on a phone or desktop.
HowsDaWeather gives a postcode-level UK forecast from five national forecast centres, checked against real rain gauges.
