Checking out their website for a forecast. Very fascinating.

Holmfirth (West Yorkshire) weather

Holmfirth 7 day weather forecast including weather warnings, temperature, rain, wind, visibility, humidity and UV

For those across the pond curious about all the Offices in the U.K. (as I usually just hear of Home and wasn't aware of Meteorological), this is an interesting consolidated listing.

Well that would be handy! Looked at my phone the other morning before opening the curtains and my weather app said it was foggy! I thought good grief it's not time of year already! Opened the curtains and it was clear and sunny! How dare they tease me with a perfect day only to find it hot and bright!

"Whether the weather be fine, or whether the weather be not, whether the weather be cold, or whether the weather be hot, we'll weather the weather, whatever the weather, whether we like it or not." Thank goodness the creator of this never touched a werther's original!

That's possible, you know what the BBC are like if they can save a quid on something.
