Ok... I need some help here, I've been using the BBC weather app for a while and it feels pretty reliable. Next week it looks pretty decent for weather, no rain Thurs through to Sunday. Also, it seems to update frequently as well.

So the question is... Why do I look on here every year and get twisted up in all of this? Nobody really seems to know more than anybody else?

Why is the BBC app to be dismissed behind other reports?

Deep inside all of us don't want too live past 50 and use this as some form of self harm. I too said very Seriously about two weeks ago that I would not get embroiled in this thread (I started the bastard). Two weeks on, a week to go, and my blood pressure tablets are being doubled.

Love it

It's not, but the BBC don't do their own forecasting. I think they still use Met Office.

 

Same with the SnowStorm app. It displays yr.no data.

 

The apps are just packaging data that you can get in more detail from websites like netweather.

Nope. The Sun could be destroyed overnight and it wont rise as a consequence, so its not absolutely certain, but it is of course extremely likely

"Absolutely Certain"? Probably death is the only thing approaching absolute certainty we can be sure of universally..............but then thats up for debate too isnt it?

Maybe the only true certainty in the universe is that there is no absolute certainty? ;)

You guys know the sun doesn't *actually* rise right?

Um, you might want to take that up with the Sun Gods?  I certainly don't?

I must've lost track of time whilst obsessing over weather charts

 

Lol, I thought it was only 2020BC, where do the years go?

"British Weather Services"?

LOL

Ever notice how a new one of these companies turns up every two years, makes stupendous forecasts gets loads of news coverage then vanishes?

It's Positive Weather Solutions all over again - same conmen getting column inches

ps. '09? my favourite.

    • Not necessarily but it should be, Download have a habit of messing it uo when others get the bookings on point. Good Charlotte I doubt are playing 3rd down and that too 3 that day while dreamy is too strong. I think you'd have one another day to help sell weekend tickets. I also doubt Papa Roach play. 
    • Here's a bit of a wild stab, few placings may be off, and for all I know half of these won't actually be touring next year, but screw it, it's a bit of fun   Pyramid: Sabrina Carpenter, Phoebe Bridgers, TBA (Florence + The Machine), Garbage, The Last Dinner Party, Interpol, Alex James Britpop Classical Other: Chase & Status, Teddy Swims, Clairo, The Kooks, Zara Larsson, Kingfishr, Sports Team, Orbital West Holts: Robyn, Baby Keem, De La Soul, Deltron 3030, JID, Dua Saleh, kwn, Daniela Latila Woodsies: Bonobo, Darkside, TBA (Tame Impala), Laufey, Warmduscher, Wednesday, The Lottery Winners, The Royston Club, Florence Road Park: Patti Smith, Super Furry Animals, Slayyyter, The Cardigans, Skye Newman, Kelly Lee Owens, Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers   Pyramid: Harry Styles, The xx, Richard Ashcroft, The Pogues, Jessie J, Sigrid, Travis Other: Rosalia, Sombr, Mitski, Alex Warren, Holly Humberstone, Cat Burns, Pale Waves, Yard Act West Holts: Basement Jaxx, Elyanna, Clipse, L’Imperatrice, Nation of Language, Jim Legxacy, Yazmin Lacey, RIP Magic Woodsies: Suede, Chvrches, Bleachers, MUNA, The Cribs, Keo, Bleech 9:3, The Lilacs Park: MARINA, Magdalena Bay, Jacob Alon, TBA (Lily Allen performs West End Girl), Getdown Services, Isaac Wood, Snail Mail, Madra Salach Pyramid: Sam Fender, Hozier, David Byrne, Cher, Obongjayar, David Gray, Billy Ocean Other: Doja Cat, Deftones, Addison Rae, Ren, Viagra Boys, Maisie Peters, The Reytons, Hard Life West Holts: Kano, Thievery Corporation, Angine De Poitrine, Thee Sacred Souls, Brooke Combe, Sasha Keable, Master Peace Woodsies: The Wombats, Metronomy, Geese*, Dry Cleaning, EsDeeKid, Sienna Spiro, Cowboy Hunters, Radio Free Alice Park: Big Thief, Laura Marling, MJ Lenderman, Richard Dawson, Oklou, Maruja, Dead Dads Club, Ratboys   *There's always one band booked for Woodsies that ends up being massively under-billed and gets shut down really early. They'd be better off playing somewhere like Other sub, but I could see the G getting them to play a smaller stage while it's still possible
    • Another Kraftwerk one for me today, as just back from seeing them.    
    • Completed my 2026 survey. Put down Super Furry Animals as my most wanted for next year but suspect the moment has gone for that. Popped a big shopping list in the box for who else you would like to see. 🙂
