It's lies, all lies!

The best thing I've found recently is to go to www.weather.co.uk, search for your post code, then click on the rain radar (Regional Radar (rain)) at the bottom, ignoring their rubbish forcast. That way, you can see for yourself where the rain currently is.

Not down in London it hasn't. Pissed it down about 5 times, a few times it was really heavy......

Now it's bright sunshine.

I think the environment is FUBARd...

You have to remember that the Beeb is totally London-centric.
If It's not happening there, then there is not much attempt at accuracy.

I blame Gordon Brown and the Labour government - may as well, they broke pretty much everything else so may as well blame them for the British weather too!!

Nostradamus quatrain 9 44:

Leave, leave Geneva every last one of you,
Saturn will be converted from gold to iron,
"Raypoz" will exterminate all who oppose him,
Before the coming the sky will show signs.

Doomed I tell you, doomed!!!

No, it's not that. The forecast is equally useless here too.
