Accuweather scared me a bit as they forecast in inches and were predicting 0.36 inches over Wednesday-sunday with 0.16 inches on friday alone.

problem is I read that as 0.36 inches=36mm and 0.16inches=16mm rain which is an amount that would be noticeable...but its actually 9mm over the whole 5 days which is really nothing and the Friday is only actually 4mm over the day which again is nothing.

damn my maths!

I think it will be ok. Taking wellies but hopefully I won't need them.

You will need them. Surely being a Spurs fan, you know the worst is going to happen?! COYS

One last time we wait in anguish...

[Thearg]

18Z run has begun!

 

I've no idea what that means but that's the best news I've had all day. 

[Thearg]

Oh is that bad news then?

[nickkkw]

Fridays gone from 19 degrees to 24 degrees in that run!

[briddj]

Fri: Light showers hitting the site about 1pm, so later than in the earlier run. Again minimal threat to the north to make matters any worse. Those light showers now only set to be around til roughly 9pm so improvement. Really minimal rain. Max temps three degrees higher 23 (that's five degrees higher than two runs earlier), pressure stable.

Fri: Light showers hitting the site about 1pm, so later than in the earlier run. Again minimal threat to the north to make matters any worse. Those light showers now only set to be around til roughly 7pm so definite improvement. Really minimal rain. Max temps three degrees higher 23 (that's five degrees higher than two runs earlier), pressure stable.

 

[jimmyt]

Oh, bugger. Higher temps means those showers are definitely thunderstorms.

Significant improvements in this forecast....

[briddj]

Nope, the high causes the rain to fragment when it hits the UK - simply sporadic light showers.

[briddj]

Sat: Same as earlier with the 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 lower than earlier.
