Weather Forecasts
How with all the technology available can they be so totally wrong?
I was wondering how many people didnt bother making the trip to Donington based upon Sunday's forecast (rain/gales...actual weather beauiful) Today is the same in the Midlands predicted to be horrible but its been great I sometimes wonder whether it's deliberate government policy to try keep people off the roads

Try the BBCi weather centre sports & events it list all the main UK circuits and takes the information from the nearest weather station that way it should be more accurate than the general regional forecast

After getting a bit wet on Saturday during the F3 race, we came on Sunday with two big brollies, rain macs, jumpers, and even wellies in the car.....and at the end of it all, I got sunburnt!
 Gotta love English weather!

Everytime I've been out this season the forecast has been "partly cloudy". Actually had everything from showers to blisteringly hot (and that was all in one day!)
