Shale Searcher Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 More developments regarding this Saturdays appalling weather forecast... Updated 16:30 Thursday 5th June 2014 There may be a saving grace for Central England/East Midlands, possibly a bit larger area... The cold front now looks like it's going to arrive from the south west a tad earlier, so that's rain producing cloud arriving in the real early hours of Saturday morning...... This will effect the intensity of the storms during daylight hours, because the associated rain bearing cloud will inhibit daytime heating, and convection until the actual cold front passes through, then the fun will start, but not as widespread or aggressive as it could of been.. As I said, still a very fluidic forecast, so will update again tomorrow morning (Friday).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwatcher Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Been checking thinks out and it looks very glum indeed for the Lions Kings Lynn match. From what I have seen on 2 sites I visit, that the rain will hit the Midlands region early afternoon and by 6pm there is a graet chance of heavy rain and thunderstorms. They have given a 90% chance of rain and given a forcast of 17.5mm of rainfall at 6 p.m. So not looking good. At the moment we are sitting in an area of high pressure that started this morning, I shall be keeping a close eye on my weather station reading in the next day or so to see if there is a change to this trend in the pressure, it can drop very quickly in this country and we are now in the 3 wetest months of the year. So summer is never what people think only what they tend to rememeber, when we those hot sunny days. The average for June is 132.6mm in our region and 146.9mm and 11.8mm, for the following 2 months. So not really very good speedway weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwatcher Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Clouding over as the day as gone on, there is a steady drop in pressure, but nothing drastic at the moment. I will see how it plays out overnight and in the morning and post again. It maybe that the heavy rain that is forcast may just drift away from the midlands area. They are still unsure where it will go it looks like the heavy rain will come from Grmany and France and hit the south coust late tonight or early morning and then will spead over the rest of the country as the day goes on. On Saturday, but the are still unsure if it will just drift off to the East and just go out to sea again we can only hope. But it looking like this speel of high pressure was only short lived.

Shale Searcher Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Big Change In Forecast, As Of 18.00 Friday 6th June.. Quite a big downgrade in the storms forecast for Friday overnight and Saturday day/evening... The theta e plume has now arrived, actually it arrived this afternoon and the cold front this evening is now over west/mid Wales.. The implications of these timeing errors are roughly as follows... Elevated storms will nip over from France in the early hours of Saturday morning and will interact with the cold front, big rain events anywhere south of the Midlands, elevated lightning and hail, these will push up the centre of the UK but will probably die out when they hit the Midlands... Now, this will leave in its wake, a trail of post storm crud/claggy cloud cover which whilst it lasts, will inhibit daytime heating, it will eventually burn off and the sunsine will trigger thunderstorms from around midday until mid afternoon for the Midlands, they won't be any where near as heavy, or torrential as previously forecast because of the lack of the earlier inhibition of daytime heating, it should dry out from midafternoon, to leave a mainly dry evening... NOT everyone, will catch a storm/s so there is still hope for Saturday evenings meetings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwatcher Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 The pressure as slowly been dropping since I said last night. We have very dark black cloud coming in from the south with the occasitinaol rumbles of thunder being heard quite close to. I expect the rain to start within the hour. It has come much quickr than I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert72 Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 (edited) I think those who have bet365 won't take the risk of attending Leicester tonight if it looks doubtful. Let's hope they are wrong with the weather Edited June 7, 2014 by robert72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Knight Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for Newcastle tomorrow. I must admit to being concerned about the Weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwatcher Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 The rain and thunder started here 20 miles from Leicester at 8 this morning, it carried on raining until 12.30 and then started to brighten up and it looks very much like things are now starting to pick up again. I only recorded 7.6mm of rain fall in that time with one heavy burst of 46mm at one stage but that only lasted for about 5 minutes. Not sure if is moving up country. Just checked the rain radar and it is now all down the west side of the country, and going up through Manchest and a bit further east and all the way up to Stiling in Scotland. So not looking to good at the moment. The rain could easily come back again to the Midlands area from the west again. But fingers crossed it has finished around here for the day. Not looking very good for any clubs up north though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Knight Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Only the weather that's concerning you , not worried about a visit from the Mighty Bandits ? Nah!! Not really. There is a Posse of 'Diamonds' Riders just waiting to send those 'Bandits' back to 'Bandit Country' empty handed. Guess who is going to a Country and Western Night tonight? :) Can you tell? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
