That's good news Mapantz. I haven't heard anything via email yet. I shall check tomorrow and hopefully it will be fixed.

Thanks.
Cheers,

I'm not a lover of the Met Office main website, but I actually like the usefulness of that widget - and I think visitors to our websites do too. Well I guess a reply would be nice with an explanation. Anyway, my appreciation is given for your perserverance and Mapantz for chasing them up.

I've noticed in the last few days that my Met Office weather widget is not working. Has anyone else experienced any problems? I also noticed that other peoples widget is acting the same. Maybe it is local to my PC?

Regards Kevin

Whilst it is still working with your current selection they have made extra options available like likelehood of rain. I tweaked mine last night.
