When is it going to stop... Raining

[classic33]

Enjoy it while you can; @classic33 's "heatwave" (or maybe warm-ripple would be more apt) is due to come to an end on Friday. So that was 2 days of almost dry weather we got (in true Brandane style I managed to find a shower on my way to work this morning, no doubt my fault for daring to use the motorbike on the strength of Classic's forecast ). Bank holiday weekend looks like a mixed bag, and we know what that usually means.... ☔☔

I posted in April, saying it would last into the following month. We're now in that 'following month" are we not?

No - you posted that it would start on the 27th

Heatwave to start on the 27th of this month!!

Then that it would last into May for a week

They reckon into May.
Possibly a week all told, temperatures above 25°C every day.

And that it was forecast by the Met office

The Met office.

None of which is correct (see screenshot)

Not according to the Met Office long range forecast for the next couple of weeks...

I thought the rainy season was over but we were woken in the night by the most intense thunderstorm we can remember. Looking forward to a flooded cycle path.

Big thunderstorms and downpours in London overnight.

Still dry here, but the wind is cold.
It seems to blow a mini gale every afternoon!

If you want it to stop raining then simply sprinkle some grass seed. Works everytime regardless of the forecast.

Who's got rain at present?

Hope not to see any over the weekend

We could do with some in Manchester, I'm on a water meter so cannot afford to water the lawn!

Boiling in Bala. Forecast heavy thunderstorms on Sunday. Camping till Monday.

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Been cracking weather in Leicester this week, though is forecast to be back to rain from Monday.

Over here in Norwich, we've just had two days averaging about 25'C with Saturday & Sunday forecast the same.
Mind you, Monday onwards looks a bit suspect - !

That's my fault! I had a bad reaction to the Dye for my CT scan and have been working at home all week. My next commute will probably be next week, just in time for it to turn cr@p again 🙄
