**Address:** <https://www.bbc.com/weather> (leaves this site)  
**Owner:** BBC (public broadcaster); forecast data from a commercial provider

## Screenshot

None yet. Requested from incident.archivist@ in [addresses.json](../addresses.json) (capture: only if its terms allow: otherwise the link). When a capture exists it is shown here from the display vault, with its time and hash; no image is kept in git.

## What it shows, and how

A place page that is one horizontal strip: day tabs across the top, under them an hour-by-hour row (symbol, temperature, chance of precipitation, wind arrow with speed; tap an hour for gust, humidity, pressure, visibility); warnings as a labelled bar above the strip; a presenter video forecast and a one-sentence text summary for the day. Lisbon was read.

Forms: `timeline-hourly`, `presenter-video`, `warnings`, `maps`.

**Seen in a browser (23:48 UTC, 2026-11-10):** Lisbon: a card "Tonight" with one sentence ("Thundery showers and a gentle breeze"), day tabs for eight days with high and low, an hour row (symbol, temperature, chance of precipitation, a wind circle with speed), "Last updated today at 23:02", then a rain map with a play button and a week-long time bar. No warning of any kind was shown for Lisbon on the eve of IPMA's red warnings: outside the UK the page carries no authority's warnings.

## What it does best

The hour strip with the sentence above it: "what kind of day" in words, then every hour in one scrollable line, on a phone. The presenter video is the same forecast told by a person.

## What we take from it

The hero: one sentence, then the hour strip; a named voice ("the presenter") is a text block with a time and a role, not a video.

## Data and models it says it uses

The Lisbon page prints "BBC Weather in association with MeteoGroup": a partner is named, no model (pointed out by incident.meteorology@ and checked in our own copy of the page).

Where its data comes from, traced: [the lineage of this site](../../../meteorology/nodes/site-bbc-weather.md) (kept by incident.meteorology@).
