Hi there,
Bearing in mind the rotten weather that the Balaerics & Spanish Costas have been experiencing, and the fact that I'm off to Majorca for 2 weeks on the 20th June, I can't help but getting excited about this: 85.214.49.20/pics/Rtavn3841.png I hope i'm not being over optimistic. Do you guys see any sign of the awful weather in that part of the world coming to an end? For an example of how bad it's been The Weather Underground have historic records for Majorca going back to 1996. The normal number of rainy days for May seems to be about 5 (6 at most) but so far this month they've already had 15 days of rain! Quite exceptional. All your thoughts would be most welcome especially if they're of the hot & sunny variety. :-) Many thanks David |

Great if your going to be located at the 500Mb pressure height on that day,
but I would be studying the 2M temperature readings for that day! I, like yourself am watching the dismal weather in that part of the world as I will be on the Costa Del Sol from the 7th-14th.

I hope you get ****ing soaked. You moron. |

I hope you get ****ing soaked. You moron. In answer to your 'comments' Weatherlawyer, the fact that there is a food shortage is of course unfortunate for those who have to suffer it. The fact that there is also a drought in that part of the world is also unfortunate, but there is NOTHING that you, I, fellow poster GKN or anyone else of our standing in the world can do about it. This is down to governments to resolve (or at least alleviate). HOWEVER many people on the Spanish costal resorts and the Balearics make their living from tourism during the summer months and in this respect we CAN make a very positive contribution. The only thing that this unseasonal weather is going to do to these people is to potentially reduce their main source of income and potentially take away their liveliehoods less off unless the weather improves. So Weatherlawyer if you're so concerned about the plight of the people in the Spanish Costas, Balearics etc do us all a favour - stop banging that 'holier than thou' drum of yours, go and book yourself a holiday down there and go and spend your hard earned cash. I guarantee they'll appreciate it much more than a month's worth of rain in the summer any day! So - back to my original question - any good weather on the way guys? |

So - back to my original question - any good weather on the way guys?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - It really doesn't look great, David. There's no indication of settled weather, via a fat anticyclone and low pressure looks anchored over the West of Europe, feeding cool, Atlantic air in for the next week, with 23C and showers, for the Costas. No signs of plumes to warm the Costas and El Horno's seems to be opereating on a low flame, for the time being! Well past T240, at middle/end of your holiday period, there are hints that low pressure could settle out in Biscay, dragging up warmer air, as pressure rises, but that's too far away for any confidence. Best hope the models handle this Southerly Jet badly and maybe things will change and pressure will rise over the Med for the 7th. You may have to hope hard though! Sorry I can't be more positive. The weather here looks as warm as the Costas, at least in the run-up to the 7th! 8(( Paul |

As the overwhelmingly normal weather there at the end of June is generally warm/hot & sunny I'm hopeful that 'normal service' will be resumed before we go away. Thanks Again David |
