Friday. Will it or won't it ?
Beebs weather talking of 8 - 10cm of rain on Friday for England and
Wales, with no sign of this developing system yet, I wonder how correct the forecast will be ? -- Keith (Southend) http://www.southendweather.net e-mail: kreh at southendweather dot net |

It's placed on the BBC graphics with the maximum directly over me! Mind you it hasn't helped with the last 9 weather warnings but I think this could be the one!

I noticed that the BBC have suddenly started quoting the predicted rainfall for tomorrow in centimetres - surely "80-100mm" or "3 to 4 inches" would have more dramatic effect? -- Jonathan Stott Canterbury Weather: http://www.canterburyweather.co.uk/ Reverse my e-mail address to reply by e-mail |
