The Weekender Weather Thread

I think it's time to start the obligatory weekender weather thread.

Currently Metcheck says it's going to sunny and warm all weekend, with no chance of rain.

Woohoo!

I will now duck to avoid all the comments about long range forecasts, etc etc (are you there JMo?)

You just had me checking it wasn't this coming weekend then! The met has issues predicting the next couple of days accurately, I think next week might be pushing it!

I believe if we all pack our waterproofs - it will stay dry!

I just water proofed my leathers... managed to also waterproof the bath, tiles and carpet at the sametime but that's another story...!

I'm saying nothing, nada, zip & diddly squat

Current 14 day metcheck forecast for Arrow Mill

http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/14days.asp

However, I know that getting an accurate prediction more than 48 hours in advance is near impossible. So I'll be waiting until next Thursday before making any assumptions for bank holiday.

If it's anything like previous years, you won't see them for the downpour... x

I know but I've also done a few long range forecasts with other weather sites

Take it from me - ignorance is bliss

Looking on the bright side... the weather forecast for the bar is relatively good, unless you happen to be downwind of Didge

I could guarantee a storm brewing.
