Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? How's your weather? And speaking of:

On the phone weather app, why does the day's forecast never equal the hourly breakdown?

i.e. Yesterday's daily forecast showed 65% chance of rain.  The hourly showed: 40% at 8PM, 30% at 10PM and 15 % at midnight.

Does anyone else ever wonder about that?

Here's AI's response:

“The daily forecast is basically a ‘chance of any rain happening at all,’ while the hourly forecast is the ‘chance of rain right now.’ They’re calculated differently, which is why the numbers never quite line up — and why midnight sneaks in under today even though it’s technically tomorrow.”
