Usually reliable. Just not at all today. Apparently it is not possible to predict hail. So my washing that I put out, including having flattened it nicely to avoid ironing it, is not only not dry, but wet and screwed up into the bargain, which means that most of my effort was a complete waste. I guess the only upside is that there isn't a thunder storm, or at least not yet anyway.

Lots of bugs. Example icon shows temperature down to -5 tonight, however looking into the night, or full 24 hour period, the app shows a low of - 2. This has been ongoing for at least a year. Feedback option in app not working, so just goes to show how the BBC value customer feedback! Also when opening, app opens not on correct/current location! Basic stuff that the BBC never fixes, despite customer feedback!

This app has a bug in the wind speeds. Today it says the wind speed will jump up from 16 to 40 mph between 9 and 10 this morning, then jump down from 40 to 18mph between 2 and 3am. It often has odd jumps like this. It's a fairly obvious error and it's been there for months. The same error occurs on the BBC weather website. Nobody at the BBC seems to have noticed. Do not use the BBC weather app or their web-based forecast.
