ploobz Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Just did a metcheck for Rockness, although there is an event page, its for the wrong dates so I just looked up Inverness on the 14 day forecast. Not looking too good, I think this good weather came too early. http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/14days...pcode=inverness Friday and Saturday look like having a good bit of rain and Sunday still doesn't look too promising.

ploobz Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) I reckon it should be quite accurate 2 weeks before. At least in the right ballpark. I certainly expect a departure from the all day sunshine of the last few years. Edited June 1, 2009 by ploobz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain333 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 The pessimist in me says we're due a poor weekend weatherwise after the scorchers of the last 2 years!!! The optimist in me just shot the pessimist tho!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rexclark Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I don't see the point in checking the weather till a couple of days before. It's quite innacurate this far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitter+Vodka Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Last week I did a sponsored walk at work, on the Thursday we checked various sites which predicted heavy rain most of the day, but when friday came there wasn't a cloud in the sky and most ppl went home with sunburn. Can't trust weather predictions and definately not 11 days away! Its gonna be lush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pengers Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 i am sure we were scheduled to have rain last year. Didn't happen! However, I am expected at the very least 4 inches of snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinylvictim Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 metcheck is usually spot on for 3-4 days ahead but anymore than that isn't too reliable - too many variables to allow for accurate predicting.... having said that I've been checking religiously for a few days now i'm sure it was pretty heavy rain on the friday night - my clothes were pretty wet when i woke up anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
