Didn't someone once mention here that, though the forecasts on News 24
are hourly and appear to be live, they are actually mostly recorded and
only updated a few times a day? So depending on which forecast you saw,
it might well have been made five hours before you watched it.

Quite possibly although it was about 10 a.m I think and I would have
thought someone would look at the sat pics and allow an edit. I don't
think the vague graphics drifting around representing cloud help either
- they seem to come and go while they are talking.
