    They're half right - the cloud bit is wrong.

    Beautiful day down here, sunshine to Africa and no frost/snow/rain to be seen

    I would like to say its fine this morning but i cant see any further than about 50m out of the window. The bloody fog is thick and cold this morning in Hams. Just hope it lifts before the rain arrives this afternoon.

    I don't see a problem with the forecast. You need to read the words as well as the symbols. It did say "afternoon rain developing". At 03:00 that was what the data indicated.

    I've just had a look at the latest actual satelitte data, and I expect the next update will remove that forecast, and say "Fine afternoon, rain this evening"
    Time to ride

    Just look for a funny looking bugger with no pants with a guy on a GSXR chasing him......
