I haven't been able to rely on ANY weather forecasts this winter.

The BBC has much better forecasts. Here's one from some years back;
it's still valid:

Tonight's forecast - dark. Continued dark throughout the night, patches
of light appearing just before dawn. Increasing brightness throughout
the day, with areas of dark building as evening comes. Darkness will
gather strength throughout the next evening.

If you missed seven forty five last night, don't worry, it will be back
again tomorrow, at a quarter to eight.
