    Get the kettle on, I’ll be there in time for afternoon tea ;)
    You’ll just have to stand up until then!

    The BBC buy their forecasts from a cheap Dutchman...(the Netherlands Meteo) They canned the Met Office whose forecasts for North America are even better than the best of the USA forecasters (annoys the USAF..) and who know the UK very well...but their tech costs..

    Met office all the way here, they get the passing flow of weather right, but sometimes the timing is a bit out.

    You're in for thunderstorms between 5-8pm. Tomorrow morning looks ok. :)
     
  7. Expect anyone travelling from the beautiful SW to be late - 2 hours delay , 36 mile queue on the M25 clockwise between j9 and j20 according to the local radio....

    They couldn't have got that more wrong could they!
    I have to say that when I go camping I ignore the forecast unless it's sunshine all the way. Rain always blows over and the sun usually comes out. :thumbsup:

    I’m rather passed off that I took note of the weather forecast!
