When you see the weather report and it says "partly cloudy" and then the next day it says "partly sunny"; what

Question

what’s the difference?

Answer 1

Partly cloudy means it is mostly blue sky and sun with some clouds.

Partly sunny means mostly cloudy, with occasional breaks of sun.

Answer 2

Partly cloudy means there aren't alot of clouds and partly sunny means there isn't alot of the sun's rays able to be seen though the clouds, so it would be "mostly cloudy" on a "partly sunny" day.

Answer 8

It depends on whether the weather person
is a "glass half-empty" or "glass half-full" person.

Regardless, they get the forecast wrong 95% of the time.

For the 5% they actually get correct,
they spend hours trying to figure out what went "right"! ;)

Answer 9

Buy a weather rock
If it's cold, it's cold out
If it's hot, it's hot out
If it's wet, it's raining
if it's white, it's snowing
If it's dry, it's sunny
Trust me a weather rock is never wrong

Answer 10

It's the same. It's just being a pessimist or an opptomist. Like, if a cup if half full or half empty.
