Default Brighton Weather on Monday

On Monday I will be involved in a paint application trial on a small
section of the sea wall at Brighton Marina. Heavy rain would be
unpleasant and possibly detrimental to the application, however
gales and the consequent high seas would make this downright
dangerous. The area to be coated is intertidal so we willl really
be exposed here!
Any ideas on likely weather conditions?

Default Brighton Weather on Monday

Very tricky Col. If you take the MetO 12Z FAX charts literally then it looks
like rain is on the cards but the strongest winds look like passing to the
south. But ... too close for comfort and there has to be a risk of WSW strong
winds.
I would expect there to be a moderate sea running along the Channel but
obviously if the low is further north or develops more then that could change. I
would say that, apart from the real threat of heavy rain that the odds are 70:30
in your favour. Good luck!

Will.

Rain although unpleasant, we can probably cope with.
It's a west facing breakwater which would be more
exposed, but the exposure is the reason for carrying out
the trial in the first place as such a location would provide
the sternest test of the paint system we are trying to put down.

Thanks for your input Will, earlier forecasts had suggested
just scattered showers.
Good luck? I think I'll need it!
