Just caught the Weather for the Week Ahead at 1.25am on BBC One. Weather for Northern Ireland looking OK tomorrow. A few minutes later, BBC One joined the BBC News Channel – and did that thing that it often likes to do, having just aired a full weather forecast – and crashes into the weather forecast on the News Channel.

Whilst I expect some variations in the forecast between different sources, I was more than a little surprised to see a different take on the weather, on two domestic BBC channels, just minutes apart.
Here’s the view of Northern Ireland for Monday, according to Tomasz Schafernaker at 1.25am:
