Default Penzance - Stupid Forecast

Hi Graham, what was your actual max. today?


It stayed cloudy all day, so the temp sat around 12C or so. (Max 12.9
during a glimpse of sunshine).

I think 11C was forecast for yesterday, it reached 16.8C.

There have been a few occasions when the forecast maximum has been
above the actual minimum.

I think there is a real problem here, as the area depends on tourism.
If, like yesterday, the forecast is for 11C (I think it was upped to
12C at some point) people don't expect the weather to be like

Still, must stop being grumpy now.
