Boil Weather

[gebrauchtwagen83]

i havent posted this in the boil thread because ive assumed thats for the administrative organisation of the weekend.

just thought id start a thread to see if we have any budding meteorologists who although we are still over 2 weeks away, can tell us how much sunshine we are going to have that weekend. all this talk of snow and cold is making me nervous!!

MET OFFICE

UK Outlook for Wednesday 18 Apr 2012 to Wednesday 2 May 2012:

Conditions look set to remain on the unsettled side, with showers or longer spells of rain affecting most areas, giving close to average rainfall amounts for much of the UK, perhaps slightly above in some places. It is likely to continue to feel cool, if not fairly chilly, with temperatures quite widely around or just below the seasonal average. Sunshine amounts are likely to be highly variable in this unsettled regime, but most places should see close to average amounts.

Well the Chilterns was my first ABR rally and it was lovely and sunny so i was under the impression that all ABR rallys are 100% sunshine guarenteed :laugh:

To be honest i only trust weather forcasts for about 36 - 48hrs in advance, certainly not 2 weeks. imagine two weeks ago if someone of had said "oh its getting to get cold, p*ss it down and we'll have some snow"...i would of asked what they'd been smoking

Sounds just like last year then. Lets face it, theres a clue in the title, the lakes in the "lake district" have to come from somewhere, so it might rain........

If you can see the hills, it's going to rain. If you can't see them, it's raining.
