Why does it never rain on - - -

Google maps?

Every time I look up a postcode - wherever in the UK, the sun's shining, blue sky & not a hint of rain or snow

I'd imagine that if it were raining or snowing, then all you would see is cloud!
My guess is that initial satellite images would have had lots of annoying cloud, but over time with more pictures taken, they add uncloudy images when they get them. Eventually, the whole of Google Earth will be cloud free.

Welcome to the world of Google where the harsh glare of the sun does not penetrate their accounting methods and paying UK tax....

Don't listen to that Roland Rock fella and his impertinent lies!
Google Maps simply represents the scientific truth.
What ideas on the weather you might have in your head simply is not within Google Map's scope.
See?

In Google world it's always sunny !!

Any company that can pay £2bn for a fancy thermostat start-up company can handle something as trivial as controlling the weather.

I'm sure there's also a 'cloud' joke in there somewhere but I can't find it at the moment.

It's easy... they just search for the sunny days.

I thought Google didn't work on rainy or snowy days so they don't have to declare as many working hours for tax purposes ;-)
