Forecast query

Post by Cornish.Weather »

Hi I wonder if anyone can help. I use Cumulus full time and I have a Fine Offset. At the top where it predicts weather and says Forecast:----------- , at the momant it is telling me that the weather is fine. but the weather out side is really overcast with a few drops of rain. How can I sort this out? or can I sort this out. Please help. Thank you

It's a FORECAST, it's not telling you what the weather is now. It does its best with the data it has available to it.

It's the height of your station above sea level.
