Weather thread 2015

[Starchild771]

Watch out for sunburn if your stuck in the queue tomorrow 

[devonhammer]

You can always tell that loads of people have set off when the weather thread goes quiet!

 

I'll be around until tomorrow. Not far away and not getting there until Wednesday evening.

[SwedgeAntilles]

Not leaving until Thursday morning so I'll be lurking until then

[Spindles]

Watch out for sunburn if your stuck in the queue tomorrow 

One of my reasons for arriving early and by coach, 2009 got sunburned at bath and west, 2010 in the queue at gate D....the less said about 2011 the better.

[Glastonlocal]

working tomorrow here too. darn it. 

[PollyPeach]

You're in charge Polly. Don't forget to turn the lights off when you leave. 

 

And set the alarm. Don't want anyone breaking in and nicking all the football GIFs.

I can't get there unitl lunch time Friday as a teacher - I  know shoot me. I'll be around...

[CaledonianGonzo]

Now that the picture has more or less settled, I don't know if I actually want to know if things are going to deteriorate any further.

[Alcatraz]

Setting off early doors from Bath so hopefully should have time to check our fate

[nickkkw]

Latest GFS run showing perhaps marginally less rain for Friday than earlier. Certainly no worse.

[Mr Splodge]

Thanks every for the ups and downs that are the weather thread, looking like it will be a good one.

Have a fab time everyone.

Sunday has been up and down all week, possibly as furthest away. I'm not going think about Sunday until Thursday at the most. Other days looking good and that's what counts. 

[Bisque]

Get me there asap. Shite week, need cheery up

[FuzzyDunlop]

I'm not going think about Sunday until sunday.

Deal with the weather as it comes

[A Guy Called Matt]

Sunday will get worse then get better then get worse then get better................ just like all other days have.

 

The only difference is we will not be reading this thread and worrying about it.

So could we be expecting something similar to a 2009 Friday again , it was pretty light rain up until the view came on then the day was glorious after that

[briddj]

Onto the 12Z update....

I think we are better off on Friday and Saturday, and there's not really any difference on Sunday. So I think this is a very small improvement.


Weds: No rain, max temp stable at 21, pressure stable.

Thurs: No rain, max temp stable at 23, pressure stable.

Fri: Pretty much like before but with light showers arriving in the morning until early evening. Much less of a threat to the north once again. Could more of that rain drift away in later runs? Max temps two degrees lower though at 20, pressure a little higher.

Sat: Chance of a few very light showers in the afternoon but really not amounting to anything at all, and certainly nothing to even remotely worry about. Temps stable at 20, pressure a little higher (was dropping earlier).

Sun:  Showers could hit the site around 6am until 6pm, mostly light showers so the same as before but any thing more than drizzly showers is now tracking further north and hitting North Wales/Liverpool. Max temp has notched up a degree to 17 (needs to keep rising!), but pressure stable.

From the latest 12z run:

 

Wednesday looks dry and about max 20C, high clouds with some sunshine in the morning but getting increasingly cloudy in the afternoon/evening

 

Thursday looks like a great day, 23C pushing 24C at 3pm and just a bit of high cloud. Reckon it will feel pretty hot.

 

Fridays rainfall total amounts to only 1mm but maxing out about 20-21C and cloudy.

 

Saturday looks around 20-21C with something like 0-1mm worth of showers, but largely sunny most of the day.

 

Sunday definitely the poorest of the lot with about 3mm rain, max 17-18C and full cloud cover all day.

 

Most importantly IMO is whether the predicted showers are likely to become thunderstorms - that's what happened when a lot of rain was dumped in 2005 and to a (much lesser) extent last year. The CAPE values predicted by the GFS are low, which means thunderstorms would not be expected to develop.

[Mark it Zero!]

Cheers guys. Probably the last run I will be around for and it's still looking pretty good. At the very least tomorrow and Thursday look to be dry!
