Good deal of sunshine to begin with

The lyrics of The Prodigy's song, Weather Experience, are actually a sample taken from a weather forecast. The voice delivers the forecast in a calm and collected tone, indicating that the weather will be fine and dry in Southern and Central Wales. There will be a good deal of sunshine to begin with, but later on, there will be some cloud with the possibility of showers, as the weather shifts south-westerly. The lyrics perfectly blend in with the electronic music track, creating a sense of anticipation and excitement.
In the context of the song, the weather forecast lyrics represent a metaphor for the changes and twists that life can bring, and the need to be prepared for anything that comes our way. The shift from a sunny and clear morning to the possibility of showers later on reflects how life too can change overnight. It's a reminder that we must always have our guard up and be prepared to face any challenges that come our way, just like how people prepare for a rainy forecast.

For those we don't know, the story behind the track is amazing :
Weather Experience is the story of the Great Storm of 1987, an extratropical cyclone which struck the UK and France on the night of 15–16 October. The first sample is a weather bulletin by the BBC weatherman Michael Fish who, a few hours before the storm, said during a forecast:
« Earlier on today, apparently, a woman rang the BBC and said she heard there was a hurricane on the way; well, if you’re watching, don’t worry, there isn’t, but having said that, actually, the weather will become very windy, but most of the strong winds, incidentally, will be down over Spain and across into France »
That same evening, the worst storm to hit South East England for three centuries–later dubbed “The Great Storm of 1987"–caused record damage and killed 19 people
The beginning of the track is very slow, then accelerates like a storm, eventually returning to a quiet state at the end. The track samples Uptown’s “Dope on Plastic” as well as an instrumental from Queen’s Flash Gordon soundtrack album.
