Don't panic yet.. TBH it's still a couple of days to go, their predictions will probably change 2 or 3 times in between now and then!

I prefer this (http://www.weatherxtra.com/forecasts/7day.asp) forcast personally :nod:
I also tend to find they are more accurate around here and Prescott is only 40 miles away.....
Dont worry about the rain :no:
Just taken delivery of the biggest marque I've ever seen :wack:

Where'd you get 31 degrees from? :wack:
Whats the postcode for you in the top right corner? should be GL52 9! :smash:
So, looks like cloudy but in the main dry

When I clicked it, it defaulted to London - so presuming it picks up from IP or something.

It says 26degrees and light rain. That is not screwed.
8degrees and light hail. That's screwed :nod: :D
it doesnt rly inspire people driving on semi slicks to drive enthusiastically though :(

It was far worse than that last year and no-one had any bother. No-one hid away either :)
Besides - whatever BBC weather says, the actual weather is invariably completely different
That 8mm of precipitation on Sunday don't look good though :(
JAE 2007 (the year after the Great Storm). There was 200mm of rain predicted as we arrived. Friday teatime it just stopped raining and the rest of the weekend was a scorcher.
This year the prediction is for a scorcher http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y47/200sxjon/sxoc%20smilies/wibble.gif
i want the first weekender's weather again! that was lush!

Me too! I remember holding the apex of the marquee up and the rain literally filling the sleeves of my coat up like a bucket!:wack:
My memory is playing tricks innit. It did rain like a bastard on the Saturday evening. I remember the 20man committee struggling to put up the other big gazebo near the main marquee.
LOL! SO who remembers 30 members holding onto the horizontal bars of the marquee at the 2006 JAE as the storm hit!?!?!
WOW. Never seen 3 people floating like that! :D

And I dont go for the driving LOL! :D
