Weather Wrong?
 

How can the current observation temperature be below the minimum temperature for the day?

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

because they always get the weather wrong?

And that pretty much sums it up. NEXT!

:D

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

Because it is a different weather station?
It does say current neares observation, which has an asterisk.

it then says something like *Nearest weather station located at Lat: 41.8264, Long: -87.6412. Observed: 0600 GMT Mon 19/7/2004.

Because it's the minimum forecast temperature? Where as the current temperature is actual? Well that's the only thing I can think of :confused: Then again it is the BBC/ Met office so accuracy is never guaranteed :p:

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

anyone know where that actually is?

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

Currently it's using a station in Georgia to give temperatures from.

so 67 miles by road from Atlanta to that weather station. So you would guess that the weather would be about the same.

Thats a pretty good site Paul

Somewhere near chicago, as I was just checking the wheather there, and couldn't be bothered to get the actual location for atlanta (which is why I said 'something like') :)

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

At a guess id say 700+ miles from Chicago

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

The minimum temp is just what was predicted (forcast) - the actual temp is .. well just that - the current actual temp. This actual could also go higher than the predicted maximum. :)

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

my point is that you would expect the predicted to be revised once the current temp was out of the predicted bounds?

Re: Weather Wrong?
 

bah, the weather forecast's never right in any case ;)

See, even Paul M agrees with me lol
As to that site, it's amazing what you can find on the internet ;)
