Yesterday's forecast calls for a 30% chance of rain today. P(R) = 0.3 On days when it rains, it is cloudy in the morning half the time. P(C|R) = 0.5 Only 20% of dry days start off cloudy. P(C|RR) = 0.2 Use Baye's Theorem to revise yesterday's forecast, given that it is cloudy when you go out in the morning. Hint: Assume Rain(R) and Not Rain (RR) are mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive events.

52% chance of rain
