I am very pleased and excited to announce that www.weather.bm has won Best Local Website in the Best of Bermuda Awards. The associated article in The Bermudian Magazine reads, "Planning an outdoor barbeque for the weekend? Is that hurricane heading east or west? When you need to know if the sun is shining or the storm is coming, our judges say they never leave home without first checking www.weather.bm". This is a worthy recognition of the hard work and dedication of our staff at BAS-Serco, who are proud to run the Bermuda Weather Service. To the entire team, I would like to express my gratitude for keeping the weather observations, forecasts, imagery and data timely and accurate. Special thanks goes to our Systems and Database Administrator, Ian Currie, who has developed www.weather.bm from scratch. Ian also maintains and develops new products for the website, and always maintains a high standard of quality. Please check the 'What's New' section of our website frequently, for information on additions to the website, and innovations we are making at the Bermuda Weather Service, operated on behalf of the Department of Airport Operations. Thanks very much to the judges and organisers of the Best of Bermuda Awards for this coveted recognition!
