Western Med weather site(s)

[pcatterall]

Just a quickie guys. Best weather site in terms of accuracy and ease of use for use in the Western Med Corsica, Sardinia etc.
I have been using 'passage weather' which seemed ok.
Many thanks

Although in certain areas all the weather forecasting sites are unreliable - particularly around the ends of Golf de Lion.

I once heard a conversation on the VHF where a boat about 5 miles north of Cap Bear signal station called them up and asked for the weather forecast for the Cap Bear area. The signal station VHF operator patiently read out the whole of the Meteo France weather forecast for the area which was for continuing light winds and calm seas. Pretty much the same conditions as the boat was currently experiencing.

After having read the entire forecast out in a rather monotone and bored voice, she added at the end as if she had almost forgotten - "Oh by the way. Here at the moment it is blowing a gale and the sea state is rough."
