WARNING!
Weather forecasting is not an exact science!
No professional institute in the world is capable of 100% certainty.
The forecasts given by the watch should be taken as an indication.
If you have to make an important or dangerous excursion (sea,
mountains), confirm the MW500 predictions by contacting your local
meteorological institute.
Furthermore, at sea and in the mountains, climatic conditions can
change extremely rapidly, creating life-threatening conditions.
Be prepared and extremely careful.
