Current Copley conditions are pleasant enough:- 14/9 09Z, NW 8KT(Bft 3) VIS 10 miles, scattered clouds, temp 10C dew 7C, 1017mb rising. 24hr figures to 09Z Max 11.1C min 6.2C (Lead Mill 5.6C), grass 2.5C rain 0.6mm, sun yesterday nil. Best wishes, Ken Copley, Teesdale. http://www.kencook.magix.net/ |

Even though I'm working on the TV coverage I don't know the on-air times, I think the off-air is 1330 but I suspect we'll still be recording for at least another hour. Got to say I'm not looking forward to later today, it was a bit cool and windy yesterday about 1200 to 1500 but come 1700 it was bright warm sunshine. Just been out and it's still a mainly clear starry night. I'm due at the finish at 0630, so will be up just after 0400, must go to bed. The glamour of television, standing in a field getting soaked... -- Cheers Dave. Nr Garrigill, Cumbria. 421m ASL. |

Cameras would still have been there, though they might have got distracted by those noisey things in the sky. B-) Very shortly after the 1330 I was head down getting all the in vision sound kit packed away. Usual time of 2hr 30min, excellent running conditions with cooling rain and a strong tail wind. Not so good for swmbo and No.1 daughter spectating! Wasn't quite as bad as I thought it might have been, bit windy but not excessive (by my standards...). Moderate rain for a couple hours just after dawn, then cleared, heavy rain for about 15 mins about 11 but could be way out with that time, the it chucked it down about 1500, half way through the derig. Got well soaked as I'd got too warm with my leggings on and I'd taken 'em off. B-( The Pennines did half a job of keeping the wet off the east coast. Up here looks to have got 1/2" over an hour and another 1/4" in the following couple of hours. Wind up to F7 gusting low 40's mph. SWMBO'd reports "theatrical rain" - someone outside throwing buckets of water at the windows... -- Cheers Dave. Nr Garrigill, Cumbria. 421m ASL. |
