We’re giving one lucky winner (aged 8-13) the opportunity to present the daily weather forecast from the Met Office’s TV studio. The weather forecast is watched online by hundreds of thousands of people every day through the Met Office’s home page, social media and websites such as Yahoo! and MSN.



After some training the winner will receive a tour of the Met Office – including getting to see our supercomputer; one of the top ten most powerful computers in the world. Finally, their skills will be put to the test in the Met Office’s media centre as they present the weather forecast for the following day.

Answer - Exeter

Answers must be sent to [EMAIL="MetOfficecompetition@3-monkeys.co.uk"]MetOfficecompetition@3-monkeys.co.uk[/EMAIL], and we will contact the winner by the 1 September 2015 to confirm their prize.
