About Met Office (Beta)

This is an early access test app - it will not contain all features yet, and is likely to contain bugs. By releasing early and gathering feedback, we can more efficiently build out the app based on evidence and user needs.

The Met Office is the UK's national weather service. Recognised as a world leader in providing weather & climate services & as one of the world's most accurate forecasters. We are also responsible for the UK National Severe Weather Warning Service, mandated by UK Government, which aims to give advance warning of extreme weather to the public. See www.metoffice.gov.uk for more information.

To get a local forecast you will need to search for locations within the app. For more information on how we use any personal information collected about you, please see our Privacy policy at https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/policies/test-app-privacy-policy
