You may find the following explanation of the BBC weather forecast useful: The weather symbol shown for each day in the five day forecast represents the predominant weather expected on the day in question.
This is calculated based on a weighting of different types of weather, so if a day is forecast to be sunny with the possibility of a brief shower, then we will see a sunny or partly cloudy symbol rather than a rain cloud.
The maximum temperature is the highest temperature forecast between 0600 and 1800, whereas the minimum temperature is the lowest temperature expected from 1800 on the day in question to 0600 the following day.
The wind speed and direction are the expected conditions at midday.
