Can someone please explain to me why the “Friday” tab/header on the MetO forecast shows a low of 7C, whereas the hourly forecast data shows 9 or 10 hours at 4-5C. Happens every day! I suspect there is a logical explanation - can someone enlighten me please?

[Sorry if this is in the wrong place on the forum, I couldn’t see an obvious home for it.]

 IanT I guess that's why it's a beta. It a bit like the present one where put a warning up for severe weather but the forecast is for dry sunny weather. 

It's pretty poor really and something which isn't really professional and something they should look into.

This will need moving into another thread dunno which one though.
