Yep, talk on netweather of 70% chance of this low winning out, which could mean another last week. Or alternatively a 30% chance it’ll be 40 degrees and we’ll all melt.

i.e they ain’t got a fucking clue!

Id take somewhere between the two extremes- Overcast, dry, warm.

Yep, if that low weren't there we'd be laughing.

As it is, everything can still go completely tits up!

I can't take the ups and downs! It's too much!

If that Low wasn't there we'd have nothing to agonise over.  It's doing it deliberately.

Help me out mate - what does this mean i.e. what is a "Low"?

Cold and wet.

I'm calling it now, 2014 Rudimental thunderstorms. I'm hoping I'm wrong

That little round green/yellow bit out to the west of Cornwall. It’s a giant, stinking, 4 day old turd.  Around it just fluffy kittens and cold beers

I’ve only just dried out my boxers from that afternoon.

Netweather find this 06Z run incredulous, for some balance. People don't think it can possibly come off. I'll take it not coming off and the temperatures being a bit less. After this June those temperatures would be murderous!

As I say with any run, lets see if the next one  validates it but my god is this exactly what we needed.  Warm temps, small risk of rain on sunday (metcheck and accuweather say 1mm! Pah! I've spilled more beer than that!), could not ask for a better forecast considering where we've come from.

 

As much as I want to get fully excited over this, I'm going to remain cautiously optimistic until Sunday.  As well all know, things can change very quickly so until that high pressure is confirmed I'm going to treat this the same as a bad forecast and wait for the next run.

 

Only kidding, I'm hella excited. 

Thank you briddj for all of your hard work.  You are most certainly owed a pint if I bump into you!

Bloody weather is more indecisive than I am. Not trusting any forecasts now til at least next Monday

Even Alderc, the doom-sayer in chief, is having to accept this might actually come off (in some lesser form).

[mjfromthelane]

I'm about to order some wellies to appease the weather gods.

We should all go out and buy some really cool jazzy wellies that we can’t wait to wear!

Just so we end up not getting to wear them.

Mine are still drying ?  This was taken about 30 mins later - freaky weather.

Is my maths correct? Weather forecast measurements (i.e. 2.3mm  or 4.1mm) means depth over a 1m x 1m square?

Meaning 1mm would translate as follows: 1mm x 1000mm x 1000mm = 1,000,000mm² = 1 litre.

THAT'S A LOT OF BEER!

70% seems terribly high ?

[grilladelphia]

can we all chip in for cloud seeding if it looks like its going to be a rainy one?

[joeruss]

Wellies have been ordered.. hopefully wont need them

So just to summarise - we think we might be okay, but we're waiting to see if there's a lot of rain coming next Mon/Tues?
