Welcome to GreatWeather! It's been online continuously since September 1995 when just 4 links were listed & the site was known as Ant Veal's UK Weather Centre. Its aims remain the same as the day that it was conceived. Those are:
 >  to provide a simply presented comprehensive range of links to a wide range of websites with meteorological content
 >  to be unbiased & feature content provided by both professional weather companies & amateur meteorologists
 >  to appeal to as wide an audience with a common interest in British meteorology and climatology

New links & updates are marked accordingly for a month to highlight changes. I usually try to update the site at least fortnightly. Please E-mail any suggestions for improvements to this site, suggestions for new links and corrections to existing. I use limited advertising to help offset some of the costs associated with running this site. The site currently lists 1025 links of which 99.0% were working when checked on 24th Apr 2008!   Ant Veal.
