Hi,

Does anyone have a clue what the weather is likely to be like tomorrow?



I've just checked two sites, one said at the current moment is is 'cloudy', the other said 'light rain'. I haven't found one yet that says it is currently persisting it down and is damn cold, so I don't hold out much hope for their forecast for tomorrow!

My guess is still persisting it down, perhaps for several more days. As you say, many of the forecasts such as the BBC seem to be more often wrong than right. As an aside, for those who may of not yet experienced a Winter here or rely on somebody else to look after their swimming pool, now is the time to make sure that pool and balance tank levels are low enough to cope with possible heavy deluges of rain to avoid what can be very expensive damage to pumps etc if an overflow into pump rooms occurs.

Try Windguru website - they are the most consistent in terms of accuracy. They forecast buckets of the wet stuff for the next week with some very high numbers in terms rainfall. Think we in for a very difficult/wet week. See my post re Lapta floods earlier today.
