Default BBC forecast for "Saturday day"?

helpfully starts with a forecast for "Saturday day". This isn't a
one- off, either. What on earth is the point?


You browser doesn't have a vertical scroll control?

Below "Saturday Day" is "Saturday Night" Though I guess this can be a
bit confusing for some people as the last update is "0:05 28/12/2003"
ie 5 minutes into Sunday...

Though if they called the current period "Sunday Night" theer would be
even more people confused as that would generally refer to a period
about 18hrs hence. Calling it "Sunday Morning" would similary refer a
period in about 8hrs from now.

Oh and it could be useful to check how accurate their forecast wasn't.
