Default Frost forecast on web, address please?

Hi all, ive been searching for a good website to give me frost forecast, but with little luck, i dont think the bbc.co.uk is very useful, since i havent seen it listing my area for frost forecast, or is that the only good one? Anyone use a website for this to protect their seedlings and plants in time this time of the year? (hope my thread posted in right spot)

I find www.Metcheck.com quite useful for various weather things.

The frost forecast is here

though you'll need to go in and change the area to your own

That looks like a good weather station. Try metcheck.com as well.

Also www.weather.co.uk is pretty good & does pollen forecast etc, and covers Europe & the rest of the world quite well too.
