Hello, I was wondering why in quite a few recent hourly forecasts (specifically rural weather) there has been something along the lines of “0% chance of 21.9mm rain”. The quantities vary of course, but what does 0% chance mean, if there is a forecasted rain amount…? Thanks in advance for the explanation. We are WW fans and have been for quite a few years now! 🙂

Hi Mustang, thanks for the support 🙂 When that occurs it means the rain is coming after midnight. The way we get our data feeds means that overnight rain (after midnight) can display in the total rainfall. 0% chance of rain is because rain isn’t likely during the day (6am to 6pm). We are hoping to clarify this better at some point in the future.
Cheers

Hi. Is there some way of finding out where the local weather stations are situated? I’ve tried looking on the map in the app but it’s not very accurate. Thanks

Hi there Pauline – this is the full map of stations we display: https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/maps-radars/observations/live-observations
You can also try http://www.Wunderground.com which is the actual host for the sites – and allows people to dig down even deeper.
Hope that helps,
Kind regards

Why is there such wildly different forecasts from Metservice and Weatherwatch?

Hi Doug, we (all weather forecasters) interpret the data and communicate it in different ways. There are many ingredients that go into forecasting and we all produce different results due to that. We also use different technology/computing.
Cheers,
