About This Map

This live weather map uses data from the ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) model — the same model used by professional meteorologists worldwide and widely regarded as the most accurate global weather model available.

The map is centred on Southampton and the surrounding area, including Southampton Water, the Solent, and the Hampshire coast. Use the overlay buttons above to switch between different weather parameters:

  • Wind — animated flow lines showing wind speed and direction
  • Gusts — forecast peak gust speeds, useful for outdoor and marine planning
  • Rain — precipitation intensity, hour by hour
  • Temperature — surface air temperature across the region
  • Cloud — total cloud cover percentage
  • Pressure — isobars showing high and low pressure systems
  • Thunder — thunderstorm probability, most useful in summer

You can drag to pan the map, scroll to zoom in or out, and click any location to get a detailed point forecast for that spot. The forecast runs out several days ahead, and you can step forward through time using the timeline at the bottom of the map.
