FFS weather!

[AcidDrink]

UK flying season: May - October. Last year there was 12-15 flyable weekends during that time (I did about 200 flights over these weekends), one in November, this year there was 2 or 3 in March/late Feb.
Last year it was irritating me, this year I don't really mind, just accepted the fact. Flying is no longer my primary hobby like it was last year (temporarily), thanks to weather.

I don't go out when gusts are more then 20 mph though, it's no fun.

I don't know if this link will work. This is what greeted me this morning. The worst forecast I have ever seen! The heavy rain icon in every time slot the entire day!

I find this website very good as it gives you an indication of what may happen later that day

Hehe, I live in Guildford. It was ****ing rain and windy at 6 am, which is really rare. Played Orcs Must Die on my xbox for 2 hours

It's unusual to see the dark cloud icons all the way down like that. The rain website says 99% chance of rain, are they hedging their bets?

Well, to try and be balanced about it all, it was a pretty mild winter. I was out there almost every weekend all the way through the winter and there were a few times in March when it was warm enough for T-shirts. Soooooo, 'could be worse I suppose.

Got up really early as the forecast said the morning was likely to be dryish.
Got up the club and it started.

I'm going to go flying, if it starts raining dash back to the car and camp it out... Seems like I haven't flown for ages .

Result, the rain has stopped.

Just the 25mph base wind, and 40mph gusts left now!

Still pi$$ing down here with lovely strong winds! But could be a good day as mate is coming over for a sim shesh and a PSU build :-)
