WEATHER 2009 !

[lofichic]

WOW, here in the North West the sky is dark grey, the thunder cracks are extremely loud, lightening is flashing everywhere, the rain is pelting down and is mixed with fairly large hailstone.

2 house alarms are going off and everything has gone mad - WOW what is going on... is this the end of the world?

Maybe the gods on high are angry that ITV2 didnt show any Neil Young last night!

Hang on a moment wheres all this talk of rain come from ??

Surely not from the metcheck guessometer !!everyone knows thats gary glitters 2nd favourite website and not to be trusted (except when the forecast is good of course)

Jackones most recent forecast gave us a 7 and by using the blind faith approach which has worked so well for religion down the years. i'm currently giving it my all to push that upto an 8.

It isn't going to be anything like 2007, as that was shite. Bin your wellies, pack your flip flops, the Cornetto's are on me !

Already said it somewhere else...this lovely weather is setting us up for biblical wettenings next week I just know it! Just too good to be true and that 2nd phase of the M word will most definitly happen...I just know it! Obviously bloody well hope not and hope that from June 30th the country floods but this weather is just too nice not for it to come and bite us on our bottoms and ruin everything. We're British...nothing nice ever happens to us!

Sorry folks...meep.

Dont worry Lucy, I dont mean to be patronising but as you're a female i've assumed you've not got much of a grasp of science.

Luckily i do and i know with 100% certainty that its going to be wall to wall sunshine.

And thats a scientific fact

Leave your waterproofs at home, a sombrero and a straw donkey is all you're gonna need

Can I ask the panel, "What are the best weather conditions to take a wheel of Cheddar to the festival"???

If the NME was a TV station it would be ITV ...

You can't argue with scientific fact!

Am I the only one who gets properlyy nervous about each forecast the closer it gets to G-day?

The South West has such capricious bloody weather. Whats the point in being a weatherman if you can only predict the weather with any degree of accuracy 2 days before the event? You might as well put these weather charts together through random numbers out of a hat (the preferred metcheck method). I don't want to wait till next week to find out whats gonna happen I wanna know f**king well now!

Sorry. Rant over.

Metcheck fruit machine now predicting rain on the Thursday.

What is wrong with me? I've been through this enough times to know that they never seem to be able to predict the weather for Glasto until around a day before and yet here I am scouring over Metcheck 24/7.
