This applies especially in the UK, where it can be pouring with rain for an hour where I live, but beautiful sunshine 2 miles away where my brother lives. The country is an island with hills everywhere and a flat east coast. The Met office data doesn't really have the resolution wanted for some people.

The adage if you don't like the weather in the UK, wait 5 minutes, is also perfectly accurate.

Yes. I live on the South Coast and notice temperature changes from driving just a few mile inlands (e.g. in winter, the difference between car windscreens icing up or not).

I know what you mean, but three or four hours will almost certainly guarantee a change (especially when raining) as this gives westerly fronts from the Atlantic to pass through.
