Monsoon Forest: Signage

Weather forecast beside entrance. In pedant mode, I hate the meaningless phrase '12 pm'. There was also a staffer outside the door warning people about the midday storm. Islands, Chester, 19th August 2015

Was genuinely about to post that when I saw the image. How can midday be 'after midday' (post meridiem)? Nonsense.

12 noon.

It's 12 noon.

And then twelve hours later it's 12 midnight.

12 am and 12 pm are not actual things.




Thanks, I feel better for that.
