UK Weather - It's Going to Chuck it Down

[Pete7]

We have high pressure over Europe and low pressure over the N Atlantic at the moment which is sucking really hot air up from North Africa. The result is big black clouds are building over Southern England and I recon its really going to chuck it down over the weekend

We can expect this too;

Just had that turn up a few hours ago. Lost all me daylight and today was hoping to have my water back (after 6 months ) - once I spent a few hours with my head inside a couple of cupboards.......

So I sacrificed a goat and had a kip .........an hour or so later the sun came back out .
