How this forecast got its score

  • 3 forecast days: 0 clear/mainly clear, 0 partly cloudy, 3 overcast or foggy, 0 with a drizzle/rain/snow sky code, 0 stormy (sky codes; rain hours below).
  • Trimmed mean of day scores 6.8 × 0.55 = 3.76
  • Worst day drag: worst day is 5.0 × 0.25 = 1.25 - one bad day cannot be averaged away.
  • Longest consecutive run of good days (≥7.0) is 1/3 = 33% coverage × 0.20 = 0.67
  • Best single day is 8.5 but it only counts through the trimmed mean - a lone great day cannot carry the window.
  • Hourly forecast: rain on 2 of 3 days (4h): 9 Nov (3h), 10 Nov (1h, overnight).
  • Whole 16-day forecast: 2 clear, 2 partly cloudy, 5 overcast or foggy, 6 with a rain sky code, 0 with a storm sky code; rain hours on 10 of them (142h).
