WEATHER 2009 !

Weather forecast: UK

Day 6 to 15

UK Outlook for Wednesday 17 Jun 2009 to Friday 26 Jun 2009:

Unsettled at first with rain extending to most parts from the northwest. It is in the nortwest where there is the risk of some heavier spells of rain on Wednesday into Thursday. It does however look as if pressure builds from the south so thereafter any rain becoming lighter and more patchy in nature. It also means that temperature should recover, probably to around the normal in the west of the UK, but may well become warm in the south and east, particularly late in the period. Not totally dry though, the northwest could see some patchy rain from time to time, elsewhere any rain will be of a showery type, and there could be some sharp showers at times, though parts of the south may well remain largely dry.

This is looking VERY good at the mo http://www.wetterzentrale.de/pics/avnpanel1.html

It's gonna be a bloody heatwave!!

[Splatt]

I know I'm a pessimist but doesn't it all point to peaking too early (i.e. next weekend early following week) and we all know the kind of rain that follows heat waves

[strudders]

I'd settle for that for Solstice next weekend

[llcoolphil]

same here.... its next week you know!

[strudders]

Struuders - you have no idea how stupidly excited I actually am. I genuinely cant remember the last time I was as excited as I am about the 9 days starting next saturday. I'll be over half way to Avebury in a week

And Im working away at least two nights this week which'll make it come even quicker!

Don't worry wormfest, I am a Metcheck guru, and when Metcheck says anything less than 2mm it means no rain at all. According to that, which totally contradicts their 14 day forecast, we will only get a shower Thursday evening.

Wait a minute...

That's last year's weather, no???!

Well well well, still on course for a dry, potentailly warm start to the festival....must admit still a long way off but i'm REALLY liking the trends here: Not bad for starters i suppose!

[Sam Crawley]

where back to the bizzaro world of met check... I recon when they cant be arsed they just post last years pic's and bugger off down the pub for a pint....

[Sam Crawley]

I must report that on the Questions board, bubsio has just observed that Somerset has had very little rain the past month or so...

[Aragorn]

latest weather run I have just looked at has the whole festival as dry, the trend is starting to appear for a dryish festival, I am tentatively thinking its looking pretty good so far. of course so far away things can change, still 240 hours away

In the last hour or two Metcheck has gone from saying some rain on Thursday evening to.. some rain on Saturday evening. I think this is a sign to stop checking Metcheck and go out to enjoy the real sunshine I can see out the window!

[Ohinever]

Further to my most recent proclamation, it is with the most unreserved and upmost pleasure that I announce:

"Chill, it is going to be one ginormous humdinger of a mega hot, mega cool muffer fecker".

Peace.
