The weather in London can be summarised as: if it rains one day there's a 70% chance it will rain the following day; if it's sunny one day there's a 40% chance it will be sunny the following day.

Assuming that the prior probability it rained yesterday is 0.5, what is the probability that it was raining yesterday given that it's sunny today?

If the weather follows the same pattern as above, day after day, what is the probability that it will rain on any day (based on an effectively infinite number of days of observing the weather)?

Use the result from part 2 above as a new prior probability of rain yesterday and recompute the probability that it was raining yesterday given that it's sunny today.
