Grey Weekend

Good news is it’s going to be mostly dry this weekend, bad news is it’s going to be fairly grey and a bit bleurgh.

For those of you who say “it’s wet here!!”, no it isn’t.

Is it lamping it down and a lake has appeared outside your house? No, ok – then it isn’t wet and for this time of year, I’d say its dry.

Drizzle does not count as wet, thats just a little damp.

Grey Saturday

Today (November 9) will be cloudy but mostly dry conditions being maintained with temperatures around 10°C.

It’ll continue to be cloudy and grey on Sunday with outbreaks of light rain and drizzle and only a small chance of a few bright intervals – again, not really wet.

However, sunshine is then likely on Monday! Can we have this all winter please?!

Outlook

Monday is forecast to be dry with sunny spells, and a light West or NW 10-15mph, veering North or NW 05-10mph later.

For a change, visibility is forecast to be good and not very grey!

Tuesday is also forecast to be mostly dry with sunny intervals – happy flipping days.

Again, not a lot of wind with a N 10-15mph forecast.

It’s also going to be staying rather warm for this time of year with temperatures not dropping below 7C.

Just be thankful it isn’t -5, 60mph winds and everywhere is flooded. You’ll have time to moan once winter actually sets in, but for now – enjoy it.
