Yes, it's rubbish, isn't it. I thought they may have made an
error of 10°C in the forecast max (as a sort of typo) but the Sun
Index is "Low" and the weather is "Rain". This is not what I have
experienced today with the latest day ever (since 1983) for a max over
30. The Met Office, as the originator of the forecast, should be
fuming over this cockup.


I think it's a problem with the site backend more than anything -
probably picking up some relic data from somewhere (end of the month,
code confused?!). Anyway it fixed itself at 9:25 this morning!
