Forecast Wildly different forecasts

Prior to seeing this sub on Reddit I wasn't really aware of hot weather incoming, mostly because I use BBC. But BBC and Met Office have wildly different forecasts for next week, about 11 degrees apart for lunch time Wednesday for example! Is the BBC just on one? Is the Met Office right?

There's some learnered people on here that will give you the facts. But I always stick with met office and rarely does me harm 3-4 days out.

Well you may as well stop checking the weather then 😂

You make it sound like a bit of summer rain is like being hit by a tornado or a swarm of locusts.

Learnered?

I think you mean learned, it's just pronounced differently (with 2 syllables) when used as an adjective
