But what about that blue/green monster over France? Any chance of that bad boy edging our way?

They've got to cross the border at Calais and since Sangatte closed down cross channel travel has become trickier.

Not in Nigel's Brexit Britain, Beryl.

Site is going to be a dustbowl though, literally no rain at all showing on this model anywhere in the southwest from now till that drizzle tues night and high temps all round but sunday/monday in particular showing max temps of 25`c+.

Take the piritin- allergy people. Ground is going to be definitely sittable though I reckon!

Meh 

 

overall pattern is of hp breaking down next week. South westerly flows binging rain over the uk, nothing to heavy in this run but I'd say this shows it could go either way if the worst of the weather tracks further south than predicted we're looking at potential 2004 type conditions however a little further in the other direction and everything would be very pleasant indeed.

oh fuck off nal! ffs!  THIS MODEL WILL STOP AT ALL!

It's looking like Countryfile is a must watch. Again

[Splatt]

Yep, can't help but feel disappointed with way forecasts are heading. I think it now seems likely that there'll be areas of low pressure/rain swirling around the south west. Just gotta hope they swirl away from us. 

[frostypaw]

Aww you guys so funny :-D it's looking so much better than it has before - hold those horses

When was it not? The great British weather is so unpredictable that even at two days notice things can still be hit and miss. Got to love it, what a luxury to have something different to talk about every day for months on end.

[The Pumpkin King]

THE GREAT BRITISH BAKE OFF IS FUCCCCCCCCKING WITH MY MIND!

[Smeble]

Weather on BBC 1 just said current high pressure keeping us dry will move off Tuesday allowing low to move in bringing lower temps and unsettled weather 2nd half of the week, possible light rain Thursday although they did say it could go either way.

[bamber]

I'm not getting involved in all this again.....

( the last six months have probably been driest six months in Somerset, in the history of the world? )

 

[Deaf Nobby Burton]

Look all I'm hearing is the weather has turned to shit? That's all I'm hearing, that's what everyone's saying, the weather has turned to shit.

 

[sisco]

I look at every forecast online and think fantastic, I then arrive here and......... everyone is panicking!

[nikkic]

This thread got me like 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Obviously there's still a lot of uncertainty, but I've seen worse outlooks.

[Aragorn]

The ECMWF can fuck off. It's desperate to get a low pressure right over us next weekend ffs

[oneeye]

 

met ofice App has this Sun - Fri; no sign of any sea mist.

[nikkic]

It's certainly looking positive, not quite time to do the Carlton dance just yet mind. 

[CaledonianGonzo]

Spell this out for me in layman's terms.

Is that the Azores High that's currently over the Bay of Biscay - and we basically need it to stay put to continue diverting the airborne bad vibes north onto Wales and the Midlands?

Yep; the battle of the high & low pressure systems plus wind direction.

The Met Office has all the computing power (super computer) to produce the most trusted, accurate models; this is where the majority of forecasts originate from (basically data is sold globally).

It's all going to be OK, trust me 

 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I thought looking at the forecasts for Bilbao might indicate the way things are trending there.

Not as good as yesterday's but not tragic
