I always wondered about that since I was a kid And even though I've spent many years "on the air" I never actually knew... until now. And I don't like it. Basically...

If I'm 100% sure measurable precipitation will fall on 25% of my listening area, I'll say "a 25% chance of rain" (instead of "SOME of you WILL get rain").

If I'm 25% sure it will fall on 100% of the area, I'll say
"a 25% chance of rain" (instead of "ALL of you MIGHT get rain").

If I'm 50% sure it will fall on 50% of the area, I'll say
"a 25% chance of rain" (instead of "I don't really have a clue").

Yeah I knew this was the way it was done, but never agreed with it. This means that even if there is a 10% chance of rain, there is still a good chance you will see rain on that particular day. Stupid way of doing it if you ask me, but if that's the way they want to do it then whatever.
