Independent Automatic Weather Stations in the UK 

This is a listing and 'clickable' map of known independently-run UK weather stations which upload weather reports automatically to a website to a frequent (more than once-daily) schedule. Please let me know of any further stations which could be added to this list and especially if you have any problems with this new listing format, or indeed have any other comments .

Notes

1. We go to some trouble to keep this list current and accurate. If you copy this list or otherwise use it as a  benchmark for your own compilation, we would appreciate the courtesy of an acknowledgement and a link back to this page. Copyright of the data on individual sites belongs to them and copyright of this compilation to Prodata Associates Ltd.

2. Please also note that the sites listed vary widely in their design and sophistication. The link provided is often to an entry page to the weather data and it will often be necessary to explore further links from the entry page. Some sites may be temporarily offline or seasonal.

3. This clickable map is now generated automatically. Because of small distortions in the map projection and also to avoid overlapping hotspots, stations may not be plotted in their precisely accurate geographical location.

4. A few sites (highlighted in the table below) are using a display based on the WeatherFlash software, which can generate very attractive and frequently-updating (every few seconds) displays. You will need the Flash plug-in installed on your PC to view these sites, but most recent browsers tend to do this by default and very probably you will be able to view these sites without any changes to your PC. The initial display from these sites may take some seconds to load but subsequent updates should happen transparently.
