Found this site

Now to translate what that might have meant in pilot's weather!

Shame I don't understand a word, and Google Translate doesn't seem to work on this site either :(

The isobars are useful indications to weather but is there any info on temperature and precipitation here?

There's a good BoB weather and general guide for mission builders here:

Yes that's great for BoB Clive, but I was looking for bombing weather :jump:. My understanding is not much better than yours but the isobars are better than nothing. Hopefully it will stimulate someone else to find more info.
