Field notes
Forecast Britain presents several model families through both exploratory maps and fixed-frame chart viewers. Its UKV view covers Britain, Ireland, and the near continent at 2 km, while the Global view extends across the worldwide grid to T+168. The wave section reports significant wave height in metres, distinguishes swell from wind sea, and overlays direction. The page also describes polar-stereographic views designed for regions that Web Mercator cannot represent well.
