Check the live forecast above for your area, then head outside to capture the conditions for bbc weather watchers—the Met Office and BBC’s community reporting project relies on your photos and observations to build a real-time picture of UK weather.
How do I submit a photo to bbc weather watchers today?
Use the bbc weather watchers app (available on iOS and Android) or visit the bbc weather watchers website to upload your image. The app allows you to tag location, add a short description, and choose the weather type—rain, snow, fog, sunshine, or cloud. Your submission is reviewed before appearing on the BBC Weather site and app. For the best chance of publication, take a clear, horizontal shot with good light and include a recognisable landmark or landscape.
What happens after I submit a bbc weather watchers photo?
Your photo joins thousands of bbc weather watchers photos today from across the UK. BBC meteorologists use them to verify satellite data and radar—for example, a photo of lying snow confirms ground-level conditions that satellites might miss. You can also view your submissions in your profile on the bbc weather watchers website. The best images are featured on the BBC Weather homepage and regional pages, and some appear on TV forecasts.
Can I use bbc weather watchers without an account?
No. You must complete a free bbc weather watchers sign in using a BBC account. This allows the team to verify your location and contact you if your photo is selected for broadcast or publication.
Why are my bbc weather watchers photos today not showing up?
Photos are moderated before publication. Common reasons for rejection include blurry images, vertical orientation, or photos taken indoors. Check the app’s guidelines and try again with a clear, outdoor shot of current conditions.
Is bbc weather watchers the same as the Met Office app?
No. The bbc weather watchers app is a separate community tool for sharing observations and photos. The Met Office runs its own “Weather Observations Website” (WOW). Both projects accept reports, but they are independent of each other.
