Hi - I was wondering if you clever people could give me an idea as to
the likely accuracy of the BBC 5 day forecast for Oban
http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=2987
which suggests we have some cold still weather coming up
As some of you may know we have a polytunnel to recover after the
gales and this might be a window of opportunity?

Its far too cold but we are looking at hiring a space heater to get
some elasticity into the plastic.
As I need to muster some recruits !!!! it would be good to get some
opinions

It's looking rather windy for you tonight Jill, but I doubt it'll be a
gale. The weekend is looking relatively settled and cool once we get
the rain, or perhaps snow, on Friday night out of the way.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/ukweather/ukpressure.shtml is worth a look
too. I find that one better for getting a feel for what the weather
will be like and what the risks are.

It certainly does look as though there will be some calmer weather once
the current low has moved away. The main uncertainty is the timing.
