About Course
Knowing what the weather will do helps you plan walks, journeys, hospital visits and days out – and stay safe in storms, snow and heat. This course shows you how to use the Met Office’s free app and website, how to read a forecast, and what yellow, amber and red weather warnings really mean.
This course gives general guidance on using weather forecasts and warnings. Always follow the latest official advice from the Met Office, emergency services and your local council.
