It comes months after Carol shut down a BBC Breakfast viewer who took issue with one of her forecasts.
The meteorologist, who is a BBC favourite, swiftly hit back after she was questioned about her upbeat personality.
A social media user questioned Carol’s recent weather forecast but added they were sure she was not being “unkind”.
The person in question suggested she had been smiling after she said there would be no rain during Tuesday’s episode.

The BBC Breakfast presenter hit back at the social media user as she rejected his claim.
Carol replied: “I am not smiling because there is no rain Simon!!! We need rain… I am well aware of that x.”
Simon swiftly responded: “Good to hear. It is just you are always so cheery, and brighten our screens each morning. But, the situation is getting grimmer by the day… and I think forecasters should say so. I see everything in terms of climate not weather, perhaps not always correctly….” he ended.
