Windguru is giving 18 knots southerly , 2.5 to 3 metre waves ( they always do get carried away with wave height ) and 9mm of rain over the 3 hours to 1 pm.

 

Grim. I can't see myself going out in that.

Accuweather is giving 35kph. That's what I like - consistency. Perm any one from four, divide by a bucket of sea water and it will still be wrong. I feel a lazy day coming on!

must me me but 35kph and 18 knots would seem to be quite similar.by my maths........

 

whatever it's firming up as pants for small boat fishing outside the harbours

 

toying with Saturday now but that's more desperation than in any real expectation of a nice day out!

For once you have gained an "A Star". Your maths are spot on.

35kph is a smidge under 22mph which is a titchy smidge over 18kts.

 

Unles one is giving East and the other is giving West I would suggest both are very similar forecasts.

Don't be pedantic!. With Met Check giving 3MPH, I was only saying that there appears to be little consistency when the going gets tough. Whatever, it looks cr@p and a good time for catching up on admin. Or perhaps I'm just getting older and softer.

Abject apologies all round. I wasn't being tetchy, just a little frustrated at having YET ANOTHER eagerly anticipated trip snatched away at the last minute. Surely to God things have got to improve!. I don't even mind getting a little damp occassionally for the benefit of the drought. Global warming seems to just mean wind, and lots of it. I've got a week fishing in Denmark with my Danish friends in July; I hope things calm down for that as I'm travelling over on the bike.

When we can't get out we have to stay on here and wind everyone up.

 

...I seem to do a real good job at that smile.gif

Hi all

 

The weather as usual is playing a blinder sick.gif

 

I have spoken to Martin and Adam and a final decision will be made on the Competition tonight.

 

It sounds as if individuals are already deciding

 

keep an eye on the Forum someone will post the decision as soon as its made

 

If we reschedule it will be soon so the bream are still available, If that means Burnham can not re-schedule on the same date we will worry about that later.
