BBC weather yesterday did say lots of heavy rain for the south east while the rest of the country had it nice,    looks like they were spot on.


said today that Friday and sat looking good so fingers crossed

Your right Andy I dont know why they bother having weather forcasts, if you worked your business around what they tell you you would be bankrupt!

swings and roundabouts and here in the south overall we get the better weather throughout the year,  I should know as I'm from Liverpool originally so Ive seen the difference between the north and south.

last 3 july's have been awful now but for the last 2 years August, September and to a large point October have been nice months.    so if we get the first few days of August out of the way then we can enjoy whats left of the good old Brittish  summer  :D

I agree Stephen.
Fed up of people being pessimists about the weather.

It's Britain not Greece!
God, we've had more sunny days this year than for many years!
Yeah, so there's been lots of showers in between, but tuesday and last wednesday were the only washout days.

I'm a pessimist about most things, but optimist about the weather.
Try living in the Lake District or something...!

It'll be fine, months left yet. ;)

Same as RWC had a few spots at around 4pm and was slightly worse by the time I got home but otherwise got a full day. Humidity was more of a problem though I was dehydrating by 11.00 am  and I only started at 10.30.  ::)

I'm only 12 miles from Exeter where the met office is based and they still get it wrong why don't they just look out the window that way at least our local weather should be right until then i'll stick to the sea weed.. ;D
