I looked yesterday on the BBC website and Saturday had a sun symbol. Today it's rain. On XCWeather, it's been partially cloudy all along. How does this happen? Presumably they all get their data from the same sources?

Because they get their guesstimates from airheaded clowns like sasguru, working with flawed computer modelling techniques.

BBC get their info from the Met Office, both are stuffed with political types now, so they're always banging on with this drip drip drip subliminal message of 'anthropogenic global warming' or whatever bulltulip it's called today.

Other places get their data from scientists.
