No, the icon under 16:00 is a shower. I screen capped that pic before 16:00.

They're not exactly where you live, so you can't expect those forecasts to be exactly what you are getting where you live.

Anyway the current shower we're having exactly at the time the metoffice said is quite a boisterous one. Exciting

High today 4.8°C, low was 2.3°C so the metoffice got those right too.

Wunderground said 7 and 3 which is way out for the high and 1 degree off for the low. What a useless website for morons.

Well Buxton is high up so that's probably why. Especially in the summer, the Met Office underestimates highs. They never predicted the 37°C at Heathrow on 1 July 2015, the absolute highest they said was 35°C.

So wunderground doesn't take into account Buxtons elevation which is why it is useless for me.

Sunny day symbol = 1-2 hours of sunshine. We had cloud and rain all this morning.

Shouldn't live so high up then, don't know why you do, Buxton has a disgusting climate.

Oh well, I'm sure I'll get over it.

To me that would be a lot nicer than 14°C and grey like it was the other day here.
