I’m 10 mins south of the track and it’s been raining really heavy since about half 6 this morning. Looking like it will continue until lunch time. Not sure how well the track dries out but they will do well to get it on 

Track doesn’t dry out quick at all as it’s so flat, can’t see it happening, tho I can potentially see a possibility of getting everyone in and then calling it off

Panthers will be desperate to get this on.They are at their strongest than what they have been all season.According to the team release they have everyone bar R/R for Ostergaard which is an improvement:P:rolleyes::D

Doubt toft will ride as he pulled out last night. Basso had a big off in Denmark so I’m sure he’s feeling pretty second hand today ! Same old story this season for the panthers. I can’t remember the last time they had a fully fit 1-7

I see Toft pulled out last night,but Peterborough tweeted their line up this morning.Maybe that was before Toft got up this morning not feeling up for it.I thought Basso came through ok from Denmark last night scoring 8pts.Although he did get a zero in his last race.

Just seen a pic on Insta of basso going head first into the fence, I’m sure he will ride today but must be feeling a bit sore,

Is it the rain that was due at KL on Monday night?

This was based on updates , dont use Instagram 

Maybe going head first into fence is the flying Glasgow kiss he's no doubt learnt

Looking at the path the rain is taking there is not a cat in hells chance of this meeting taking place... why do they call meetings off a day in advance based on a forecast of showers and then not call it based on a forecast of prolonged heavy continuous rain? Strange

Just proves that the kings Lynn call off on Sunday night wasn’t based on the forecast ! Especially as it’s the same people involved with both clubs. Definitely suspicious

It's only due to rain for a while, afternoon looks fine https://xcweather.co.uk/forecast/peterborough

have you seen the rainfall radar? https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/observation/map/#?map=Rainfall&zoom=8&lon=-0.58&lat=52.15&fcTime=1661376300

No, I have had a couple of issues with that before - didn't travel when I should have, so just stick to the one source now.

I always go by the rain fall radar, it shows what is actually happening and shows which way the weather is actually tracking rather than a forecast, especially for short term weather... different strokes for different folks though

But rainfall radar is a picture of actual rain and not a forecast. Use the animation button to get a sense of how the bands of rain are behaving and you have the best date you could possibly have. 

If I was restricted to one source, it is the one I would use.

I get that, but rain can suddenly disappear off that radar - it doesn't mean all that rain travels in the same direction for ever more.  I guess the best test is standing outside with no hat.
