At 1215 the Jazz FM DJ announced an apology for their 1200 weather
forecast (which had been for dry weather). He said that, during the last
record, he had left the studio (apparently in London W1) for a moment
and noticed that it was "weeing down" (I presume this is a technical
term g). He apologised for the Met Office forecast and there was then
the sound of paper being torn up. He then said that they will correct
the forecast at 1300.

Who was going to 'correct the forecast at 1300'?. I suspect that as with
most radio stations they had produced a quick interpretation of the forecast
given to them. The accuracy of these short summaries pushed out by both BBC
and commercial radio at times beggars belief. Forecasts for the York area
this weekend have been generally OK.
