Title: Is Weather Bagel working for you?
Post by: Revolution9 on 30 November, 2018, 11:38:39 am

I've been trying for a couple of days now, and while the map and route are displayed, there is no weather displayed.

Is it just me?

Are there any other similar sites?

Just tried it myself and it only shows "--" for temperature and no other weather details.

On their facebook page, posted 21 hours ago:

"The site is poorly at the moment, our upstream forecast provider has changed things and we need to tweak some stuff! Normal service will resume shortly."

It's not just you, I have had the same problem for the last couple of weeks. I've been using myWindsock instead. For a rough approximation of weather in a couple of weeks any forecasting site is sufficiently inaccurate that it is indistinguishable from a vague guess!

Weather Bagel is back up and running.

Strange wind predictions for Saturday.  Metoff has Westerly/SWly.  WthBg has the wind  blowing from all over SW,W,N,E&S.  ???

Never tried Weather Bagel before but it looks like a good thing to use!  Will give it a go on my next ride.

Not WeatherBagel, but Saturday's forecast for the SE doesn't look too encouraging...

Weather Bagel appears to be broken again – I get 'Could not process route' when I click 'Get me a forecast'. Anyone else getting this?

I get the same problem here.

Still not working – and reducing the number of GPX file points doesn't help.

I've now discovered Epic Ride Weather (https://www.epicrideweather.com), which looks like it will fill the hole – and I'm happy to pay to support it (not an option for Weather Bagel, as far as I know).

There's another thread about this at https://yacf.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=119226.0, btw.
