Thinking about the weather!

I was with the family at an airfield in Hertfordshire today - the Beaver's were supposed to be taken up in a light aircraft, however it was too windy for flying! We had a good tour of the airfield and the Beavers sat at the controls in a plane, there was also a great BBQ!

It made me think that if we were leaving Land's End today, it probably couldn't be better! Strong westerly winds and a mixture on sunshine and cloud. We would be blown most of the way to Bristol!

Anyway, I decided to check out the long range weather forecast! Here goes...
