[Albion] Weather tomorrow

[BN41Albion]

I agree, very long droughts of weeks, but then these deluges. I record rainfall now, my Dad’s been doing it for the best part of 30 years. Big numbers here, despite that long Sept/Oct drought.

Yeah, I guess I haven't really thought about how heavy the downpours have been comparatively! We're certainly making up for the lack of persistent rain last few days too

Pluvial famine to feast to famine in our garden last 5 years. Just now trugs, buckets, you name it are overflowing. Then in spring/summer the lawns, some shrubs and perennials suffer, despite mulching etc, things die.

It’s been absolutely pissing it down the last week or so - when it rains it has been very heavy.

I wonder if the Amex pitch would ever be unplayable?

Ajax certainly made it look that way

The drainage is excellent. My son was a mascot against Leicester years ago so I got to stand right behind the bench until kick off. It was absolutely biblical and I was soaked to the skin but the pitch didn’t have a single bad patch. You can see the water running off it. I think you’d need flash flood conditions.

Looks like the weather could be a repeat of the AEK game, but hopefully not a repeat of the result. I got soaked through to the bone that evening, even though I was wearing my waterproofs.

I’ve invested in some new waterproofs for today!

We've got a spell of rain about to pass through moving SW to NE and then there are more showers developing for later. Its going to be hit and miss whether we get rain before, during or after today's game.

Southern rail tweeting a potential land slip between Lewes and Brighton…they will share more details soon

It doesn't say potential. It says there is a landslip and trains unable to run between Lewes and Brighton.

This is about as useful as the actual weather “it may or may not rain, before, during, or after the match” in a similar vein we will likely win, lose, or draw today.

We only visited ESU once, a Championship game. Two blokes behind us clearly loathed Hemed, lots of “I told ya” if he made a mistake. Then he scored a brace
