How this week got its score
- 6 forecast days: 4 clear/mainly clear, 0 partly cloudy, 2 overcast, 0 wet (fog/drizzle/rain/showers), 0 stormy.
- Trimmed mean of day scores 9.3 × 0.55 = 5.14
- Worst day drag: worst day is 6.2 × 0.25 = 1.55 - one bad day cannot be averaged away.
- Longest consecutive run of good days (≥7.0) is 5/6 = 83% coverage × 0.20 = 1.67
- Best single day is 9.9 but it only counts through the trimmed mean - a lone great day cannot carry the window.
The full model, including why a single great day cannot rescue a bad week, is on the methodology page.
