What does a 40 percent chance of rain mean?
A 40 percent chance of rain means that it is slightly more likely that there will not be rain. Sixty percent chance of rain is the opposite. It is slightly more likely that it will rain than not.
Does 40 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms mean it will rain all day?
A 40 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms means that there is a moderate likelihood of thunderstorms occurring in the area, but it does not guarantee continuous rainfall all day. It suggests that there is a moderate probability of some areas receiving rain from isolated or scattered thunderstorms, and the overall coverage and duration of rainfall may vary.
The weather forecast says there is a 60 percent chance of rain today and a 40 percent chance of rain tomorrow What is the probability that it will rain today and tomorrow?
To find the probability that it will rain both today and tomorrow, you multiply the individual probabilities: 0.60 (chance of rain today) * 0.40 (chance of rain tomorrow) = 0.24 or 24%. Therefore, there is a 24% chance that it will rain both today and tomorrow.

When there is a 40 percent chance of rain - what does that mean?
There needs to be a location as well as a time interval. A statement such as "there is a 40% chance that it will rain in Yourtown over the 12 hours starting at sunrise tomorrow" means that if you consider a whole lot of days like tomorrow - with the same sort of weather as you experienced over the last few days - then in 4 days out of 10 (40%), it will rain tomorrow. Just to complicate matters, the statement does not distinguish between there being a 40% probability that it will rain non-stop or that it will rain briefly.
The weather forecast says there is a 60 percent chance of rain today and a 40 percent chance of rain tomorrow What is the probability that it will rain today and tomorrow?
To find the probability that it will rain both today and tomorrow, you multiply the individual probabilities: 0.60 (chance of rain today) * 0.40 (chance of rain tomorrow) = 0.24 or 24%. Therefore, there is a 24% chance that it will rain both today and tomorrow.
What is the total percent if the percent of rain on Monday is 20 percent and the percent of rain on Tuesday is 40 percent?
20% first day, 40% second day, Total percent of rain over the two days is (20+40)/2 = 30% per day
Probability of precipitation means what?
Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service routinely include a "PoP" (probability of precipitation) statement, which is often expressed as the "chance of rain" or "chance of precipitation".EXAMPLEZONE FORECASTS FOR NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIANATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PEACHTREE CITY GA119 PM EDT THU MAY 8 2008GAZ021-022-032034-044046-055-057-090815-CHEROKEE-CLAYTON-COBB-DEKALB-FORSYTH-GWINNETT-HENRY-NORTH FULTON-ROCKDALE-SOUTH FULTON-INCLUDING THE CITIES OF...ATLANTA...CONYERS...DECATUR...EAST POINT...LAWRENCEVILLE...MARIETTA119 PM EDT THU MAY x 2008.THIS AFTERNOON...MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH A 40 PERCENT CHANCE OFSHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

SOUTHWESTWINDS 5 TO 15 MPH. CHANCE OF RAIN 40 PERCENT.What does this "40 percent" mean? ...will it rain 40 percent of of the time? ...will it rain over 40 percent of the area?The "Probability of Precipitation" (PoP) describes the chance of precipitation occurring at any point you select in the area.How do forecasters arrive at this value?Mathematically, PoP is defined as follows: PoP = C x A where "C" = the confidence that precipitation will occur somewhere in the forecast area, and where "A" = the percent of the area that will receive measureable precipitation, if it occurs at all.So... in the case of the forecast above, if the forecaster knows precipitation is sure to occur ( confidence is 100% ), he/she is expressing how much of the area will receive measurable rain. ( PoP = "C" x "A" or "1" times ".4" which equals .4 or 40%.)But, most of the time, the forecaster is expressing a combination of degree of confidence and areal coverage. If the forecaster is only 50% sure that precipitation will occur, and expects that, if it does occur, it will produce measurable rain over about 80 percent of the area, the PoP (chance of rain) is 40%. ( PoP = .5 x .8 which equals .4 or 40%. )In either event, there is a correct way to interpret the forecast: According to the NWS, "CHANCE OF RAIN 40 PERCENT" means there is a 40 percent chance that rain will occur at any given point in the area.NOTE! However, this is not entirely accurate language. It is better expressed as: "CHANCE OF RAIN 40 PERCENT" means the on average for all of the points in the area during the specified time period (usually 12 hour periods), chance that rain will occur (on average) is 40%.Explanation:Suppose the the forecast were for Maui, HI. One "given" point is your house near the top of Mt. Haleakala, where it rains almost constantly. 40% percent is obviously not accurate for that given point. So assume that Mt. Haleakala is 10% of the area of Maui and that the average chance of rain today there is 80%. And assume that the average chance of rain for the other 90% of the island is 35%. So for the entire island, the average chance of rain is (.9 * .35) + (.1 * .8) = .4 = 40%. Clearly, the smaller the area, the more meaningful and accurate "chance of rain" is.
Your wedding day is next weekend There is a 40 chance of rain the day before your wedding and a 30 chance of rain on the day of your wedding What are the odds that it will rain on your wedding day?
Well I thinking I would say you have a..... 30-40% chance of rain on you wedding day.
Do most TV meteorologists present the weather using teleprompters?
If there is a 40% chance of rain on Monday, 50% on Tuesday, and 40% on Wednesday then math tells us that there is a 82% chance of rain over those 3 days. Lately I have seen percentages listed for each hour of the day. For example, a 60% chance of rain for 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 in the morning. Does that mean there is a 99% chance of rain that morning?
