Smoggycon 2011 Weather Forecast
« on: November 17, 2011, 10:46:49 PM »
No Snow This Year!!!

According to the Met Office:

UK Outlook for Tuesday 22 Nov 2011 to Thursday 1 Dec 2011:
Unsettled and mostly mild in northern and western parts of the UK, with spells of occasionally heavy rain, particularly over southwest-facing slopes in the northwest. Rain will be coupled with gales at times, perhaps severe gales in some northwestern areas. The southeast should experience drier, brighter conditions at first, although it may feel chilly, especially where morning fog or low cloud persists. Unsettled conditions in the west may make inroads east at times. Through the second week, westerly winds should extend to other parts, giving largely unsettled weather with showers or longer periods of rain at times, although southern parts driest. It will feel colder as temperatures fall closer to the average for late November, with an increased incidence of overnight frosts and a heightened snow risk for Scottish mountains.

I hope they're right for a change, the snow made it a challenging journey last year.

 That would be too bad as I have some new stuff to show off.

If it's anything like the new washer I got last week there will be a redundant hot water feed to sort out and a waste pipe and plug cable that are about half the length they need to be!

It was indeed a good show, though I only had a 45 minute dash around, which didn't do it anywhere near justice. There were some good tables on show. I particularly liked the VBCW table though It's not something I play. Well done to the organisers.
