Cloud Free Night

Hi

I have just started using CFN.
The meteogram for Sydney tonight shows very little cloud after 9pm using Access, but up to 70% using GFS.
Is this usual? Why are they so different and should I just use Access?
They can't both be right. Any thoughts!
Cheers
Greg

Hi mate, GFS is the american model and access is australian, i follow CFN every day and the access model is super accurate, i suggest you to become a supporter and enjoy the benefits of more detail on the models..........

Thanks Diego, I was thinking the same myself but it's always good to get another opinion.

meteorology is a more inprecise science than astronomy!

Fine sunny day with a chance of rain......................old codger near Nabiac on the NSW coast swore by the forecast for Tamworth 250kms inland from him. The local forecast wasnt accurate as far as he was concerned, whatever Tamworth got was what he got that day on the coast.
