My view, for what its worth.

Looks like some of the more pessimistic models on here look like they are matching up with Metcheck and the MO long range - a North west / South East divide.

Provided that low stays to the North. Fingers crossed.

C'mon the Azores high, push that weather front to Scotland.

WOW, here in the North West the sky is dark grey, the thunder cracks are extremely loud, lightening is flashing everywhere, the rain is pelting down and is mixed with fairly large hailstone.

2 house alarms are going off and everything has gone mad - WOW what is going on... is this the end of the world?

Maybe the gods on high are angry that ITV2 didnt show any Neil Young last night!

Worth remembering that the GFS models. on which Metcheck bases it's computer generated (and ever altering!) 'forecasts', often has a tendency to be somewhat more pessimistic than the European and Met Office models.

Latest Met Office update from 11:35 Monday, is a good deal better than the latest Metcheck update from 13:19 Monday. And even the Metcheck forecast, which I expect will change a fair few times between now and next week anyway, is overall positive except for Thursday night/Friday morning. It might even be that they're oveplaying any risk of rain anyway, they've been known to. Hopefully a transient feature.

The BBC update to its 4 week forecast, from today (Monday 15th) , based on Met Office data but I think interpreted by the BBC's own people (?) is also still positive overall.

The one to watch will be this evening's update from JACKONE, he synthisises the different models and therefore presents a range of outcomes based on all the output.

My fervent hope is that the small amount of r**n included in the 12z GFS run and linked update to the Metcheck forecast will be ironed out.

Overall, the South West still looks set to be dominated, or at least strongly influenced, by High Pressure ... we can only pray that this hangs on over the whole period.

Sreve Murr will be back before long I think as well, his forecast from yesterday was truly great, so big thanks to him as well as to JACKONE. I hope both of em are able to confirm current positive trends.

    • Based on previous times that rules quite a lot out of early summer festivals into the August runs.
    • No dramas man, I just like to follow others journeys as well. Get the inspiration, give out inspiration and the outdoors is the clear the head place to do it. I'm heading out for a easy trail run today I think, 10k- 10 mile we'll see how we go. I've got a half marathon in October I'm well unprepared for hahs
    • The Cheap Thrills at Mountford Hall, Liverpool.    They've been around for a while and have built up a large local following. Last night was their biggest yet, at a sold out 2,200 capacity venue.    It was a big old joyous, indie singalong from start to finish, the band clearly having the time of their lives. The debut album is out next month and they seem to be going down well on the festival circuit, maybe their time has finally come.   2 supports, I unfortunately missed Credits but the few songs they have on Spotify sound good, Americana vibes. The other was M60, reportedly Gary Neville's favourite band. If that's true, he's as clueless about music as he is football. To be fair, their sound was poor, maybe with a clearer sound they'd have been better but it was pretty dull.  
    • I can see them all merging along with the Tory’s . Restore curently couldn’t muster enough candidates to be a viable option . I lasted 4 mins and couldn’t watch any more . Lowe is just dull along with racist
