Default Don't get carried away for next week

There's a lot of talk at present about summer arriving and the media are
expecting a sunny heatwave. I urge some caution. A waving cold front is
expected to come wriggling down from the NW early next week. A more
substantial wave is forecast as a possibility from a notoriously difficult
place for models, just NE of the Azores. All it takes is for that to develop
and we could have a lot of rain mid-week in some areas, especially
Midlands/northern England. And then when that relaxes away a cloudy NE'ly.
Take a look at 00Z GFS today 20th for the possibilities, wall to wall
sunshine it is not. Flooding and heavy rain are still on the cards in
places.




Hey Will, Ikmow not many here will like this; why even Anthony Watts has turned against him, but our mate Piers has also warned of heavy rain possibly reaching the opening olympic ceremony in London with 80% certainty

From his website


= LONDON OLYMPIC GAMES WEATHER LATEST (17/18 July)
Piers spoke on LBC radio and posted on Accuweather 17th July: "...The Olympic opening ceremony could be deluged we warned in our WeatherAction forecast issued mid-June. Standard Meteorology is just NOT reliable 10 days ahead whereas our WeatherAction long range forecasts for UK & Ireland this month so far have accurately forecast the major deluges hitting England and Wales to the day. Of course as I said on LBC radio 17th July the rain we expect on 27th in England MIGHT just miss London but at this moment we remain 80% confident of rain on the ceremony and continuing through the Olympics period.
