Friday Nights Rainwatch

[Uncle Spielberg]

Chance of rain Friday evening 50% and rising. The cold, clear, frosty weather we are having this week ( -4C by night Wednesday and Thursday ) the Atlantic systems are staging a fight back with rain , wind and mild predicted by the week end.

My attendance in in the balance.

As we all know now especially sth's for the last 10 years BHAFC are at home Friday and being at home means that is has to RAIN. Well after a week of dry weather needless to say the weather and atlantic systems have picked up on the fact we are at home Friday and have this little beauty a couple of thousand miles to the West and rattling along for around 7pm Friday evening going on all through the night and next day with gale force winds.

Enjoy.

Well, if it didn't get milder, and stayed -4, the game would be OFF, so bring it on....

the layer of frost had disappeared last night, and the pitch was green as ever as the athletics club had their training session

Met check says NO rain. Still worth checking a few days before.

Micky Adams is still manager. Hawkins is certain to play. My attendance is in the balance...

Ive just got a half day off work, its Barry's Christmas party, a pub crawl and drinking from midday. My attendance is in the balance

I am meeting an old friend for a drink at 4 ish and then a curry. If it is pissing down at 7pm there is an 88.76% likelihood we will just stay in the pub. I cannot be arsed to get soaked and cold watching shite football anymore. Bad fan ?. I don't really care to be honest. If I do not go I would have given the club £ 40 for the 2 tickets anyway.

Metcheck (probably the most accurate site) have a tiny amout of rain between 9pm and midnight... I say rain... it's only 1C!

With the fronts coming up against the cold pool of air over us for the week, we might see sleet or freezing rain at first, but the lack of intensity forecast probably precludes snow, but you never know!

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Having said that - the forecast for early Saturday is wet, so it won't take too much for it to turn up 3 hours earlier

The forecast models have generally been delaying the arrival of the fronts from the Atlantic, but you never know what the latest one (due 4.30 today) night throw up...

To be serious. It is likely to be cold with rain throughout the whole match. After 10 years I must have sat in those conditions about 50 times. I said after the Millwall monsoon I was not going to do it again.

I do not want bloody pneumonia with Xmas 2 weeks away. What a wimp, yes, but its just not enjoyable sitting in the rain for over 2 hours more than anything and the warm, abivalent surroundings of a hostelry with some warming Brandy and then a leisurely curry has far more appeal.

No, sitting in the rain watching shite football is a young Man's game.

My tickets will be on the other thread later today.

Enjoy.
