The reason the current conditions do not match the forecast icon is because the
forecast is a prediction 24-48 hours in advance. In most locations, this
prediction is only 70% accurate and it is a good idea to consult the National
Weather Service for more accurate weather forecasts. In some locations, this
prediction may be less or more accurate. However, it is still an interesting
educational tool for learning why the weather changes.
The National Weather Service (and other weather services such as
Accuweather and The Weather Channel) have many tools at their disposal to
predict weather conditions, including weather radar, weather models, and
detailed mapping of ground conditions.
