The WeatherOnline Team introduces a new Weather Information Service Agroweather specifically tailored to the needs of the Agricultural and Horticultural Community providing up to date weather information during growing season and beyond.

On a new and special website www.agroweather.co.uk we provide detailed and precise weather information to the farming community and everybody else requiring specific information during the growing season. Once signed up the user can choose from a variety of options online as well as a daily fax service with weather forecast for a specific location and specific species.

Agroweather offers useful information like current weather information, current radar and satellite images as well as weather forecasts. The online weather forecast is displayed in 3 hourly time steps for the first 2 days and 6 hourly time steps for the following 12 days. All together displaying the forecast and trends for the next 14 days. The Agrofax features/service provides the general weather forecast as well specific parameter like leaf wetness and crop temperature.

Furthermore with Agroweather WeatherOnline presents extensive coverage of the most relevant fungus diseases influencing crop development e.g. Phytophtora, Alternaria and Fusariums.
