Synoptic charts

[zingaro]

I used to like observing the synoptic pressure charts on the BBC weather site before setting off on my boat,if you clicked on the Alantic presure charts it used to bring them up and you could scroll through the next 5 days. I liked the format that they used, but it does not seem to work anymore. Can anyone recommend any other sites with a similar format.

www.greatweather.co.uk has/had dozens of links, including a back door route (through a German site) to the Met Office synoptics. Unfortunately it seems to be down at present...

You can get the nasty looking coloured charts still from the Met Office for up to T+84: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/surface_pressure.html

The refurb on the BBC weather site has put me right of using it. Best simple large synoptic I have seen is here

Thanks everyone for such a great selection,It will keep me busy, hoping the weather improves on the west coast of Scotland early next week so that I can have a play out.

I have put together a portal for marine weather, charts, gribs etc. which is comprehensive enough to be useful but not so full of links as to be too daunting to use. Just what I reckon to be the best of weather websites.

I found this is a good site to bookmark if you're accessing from a mobile phone on the water.
