Graphics gone awol again,
Forecast for West midlands is heavy rain clearing, dry by noon with a
few brighter spells this afternoon. Dry but rather cloudy tonight.
Gaphics show heavy rain symbols for Weston Coyney throughout the day
well into the night. They cant both be right!!
Last few hours very wet here with 27.8 mm so far.

The computer-generated hour-by-hour forecasts and the human-produced
text are all too often telling very different stories. As I said in
another thread recently, the computer models today are pretty good at
predicting the future state of the atmosphere but pretty rubbish at
predicting the actual weather that will occur. Raw model output was
never intended to be an end-user product.

I agree with you Norman but
'Raw model output was

You must be joking.
That is the very intention.
Misguided though it may be.
