As current weather forecasts are so wrong can get someone that knows the forecast better?
MTV weather just doesn't know what it's doing :P Brazil was thunder & heavy rain Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday practices was thunder race starts dry :D

FYI - The current forecasts are from the same source as the weather itself: http://weatherunderground.com. They probably source the forecasts from the local weatherstation, I guess.

Please can you clear something up for me. I race in Magyar league, race begins at 20:30 BST, are the weather conditions and temperature live at the circuit no matter what the local time?

Thanks
Kev

The conditions are fetched live from the circuit but they may take a little while (up to 10-15mins) to be reflected in the race simulation from reality.

Please say yes. :)

There something wrong somewhere then.
practice 9pm brazil local time 5pm mostly cloudy not the thunder storms like what I had
looking through the hourly Weather History & Observations the weather I had was the weather they gave at 7:18am it's the only time that matches the conditions I had doing setup with 94% humidity

Is it possible them in WU are trying to make it more realistic?
Practice early hours weather. Qualifying afternoon weather & race live weather

Perhaps you may have gotten the wrong address -- after spending some more time on Weather Underground in the past, and also utilizing their mobile app, I've learned people have personal weather stations also sending information to WU, so it's important we know which weather stations from Weather Underground IGPManager is getting their information from. Just to be sure and to eliminate the chance of messing up strategies and know for sure if something is wrong or not.

Maybe I'm entirely wrong about what I've just said. But curious to know which locations IGPManager is getting the weather info from! :D

I looked up Interlagos on their site and when I clicked to see hourly report it re-directed me to Sao Paulo Airport. My strategies weren't messed up just happened to be dry with me on a full wet setup lol
More information of race day would be helpful as looking at 4day forecast isn't that useful when their is 3 days listed that you are not even there. Maybe set it when you click on get forecast it opens WU in a new tab
