BBC Weather Centre - out of time if not date?

I didn't take any notice of weather forecasts but, as spring is with us once again, I want to ensure we won't get snow to ruin it so I've been checking more regularly online and the BBC Weather Centre is a great online resource. It enables you to custom short-term or five-day weather forecasts to your specified location.

However, given the spped of change in the weather - which is apparently 'increasing' - surely any great web resource such as this will only be effective by tying in with Twitter or text-based applications?
