Weather.com is not calibrated to adjust its links for the temperature. Today I checked the 10-day forecast and it showed current temperature at 50 degrees. Directly below was a link stating "Protect your plants from the heat" A few days into the forecast it showed that it was going to be 60 degrees and overcast. Below that entry was a link stating "don't forget your sunblock!"

Hah!

It doesn't seem to care about location, either. A while ago it was telling me that it was good 'beach weather,' here in land-locked Arizona.

It can be off too, especially for the microclimates in Cruz. I remember one summerish day checking weather.com, it told me it was 70 degrees and sunny (which it probably was, in town). I looked out my on-campus apartment window to low-hanging fog, and if it was over 60 I'd have eaten my hat.

They're Not Quite With It sometimes :)
