Weather Forecasting Description and Limitations
In general, if the rate of change of pressure increases, the weather is
generally improving (sunny to partly cloudy). If the rate of change of
pressure decreases, the weather is generally degrading (cloudy, rainy
or stormy). If the rate of change is relatively steady, it will read partly
cloudy.
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.
