About weather forecast
Hi,
I’m wondering if there is any difference between the British style weather forecast and American style weather forecast. Please explain in details if there is any. In addition, I found some transcript of weather forecasts online, as follows, but do not quite understand the underlined words in red, please kindly explain. (I want to listen to the American weather forecast and totally understand what the presenter says, please teach me a good way or provide some goods links. ) Thank you for your kind help!!!
1. Saturday UK
A cloudy and breezy start to the day across most of the country, with some mist and fog shrouding the hills, and some spots of drizzle on eastern facing slopes too.
2. Tonight Ireland
Heavy showers will clear the east coast early tonight, with clear spells developing, but some showers will continue to affect west and northwest fringes. Lowest temperatures 6 to 10 degrees, with moderating southwest winds.
Thanks!
