*Volt Meter Drops Below 13 Volts*

It started pouring down rain today so my yard project came to a halt. I made a trip to Harbor Freight and picked up a multimeter just to see what my charging system is doing as my in-dash meter (Classic Instruments) was showing below 13 volts at times with the AC on. This time the meter showed about the same as the multimeter. It never dipped below 13 volts. Probably need to check it next time I see it drop below 13 volts to see if its the gauge which I suspect or my charging system. What do you guys think about the numbers I'm seeing?
