I am finding that the weather report is insisting that there is zero rain happening and zero rainfall recorded for the last 24h... While we are running around getting wet while trying to get washing in!
The reporting seems to be very far from accurate when it comes to brief rain around here?
I tend to agree, all I can do is take what Accu Westher info gives me.

Not a criticism at all, just astonished at the difference in accuracy here versus at home. What causes this, I wonder?

Midday Update - Yet again the Accuwether forecast is wrong in that we so far have had quite a bit of sunshine and it looks set to continue, however one thing they have got right is that it is very windy.
