Title: LM Weather post
Post by: cja on May 31, 2022, 04:50:51 pm

Still a couple of weeks away, but I get inexplicably drawn into long-range weather forecasts for Le Mans.....well, someone has to!   :laugh:

This morning, on the ever-reliable ::) Meteo France site, Saturday & Sunday were full wets/monsoon tyres!!  :o

This afternoon....that's become dry & sunny for Saturday & sun/cloud + poss thunderstorm, for Sunday.

Give it a week and Meteo France will probably issue a snow warning!  8)

Think I'll stick to Gav's Weather Vids and I can only ever understand 1 word in 5, there!  ;D

The good old BBC long-ranger suggests partly cloudy but mid 20’s from Weds 8th through til the Monday. Dropping off to 9 or 10 overnight.

Sounds more than acceptable to me for the moment

Yes, the BBC one certainly sounds more acceptable

As I understand it, it looks like I'll get a decent dousing at scrutineering on Friday and Saturday at for the Test Day on Sunday, but things seem to be looking p thereafter.

I can't do the mankini any more, battling with errant belly flesh is a step too far these days, so I think it's to be crocs and cagoule most days.

Can't wait.

Same here. Absolutely can’t wait now.

Over the bridge to Wales Tues evening to then motor down to Folkestone in the motor home.

Might get an earlier crossing if we are lucky but not holding my breath tbh

It's looking like it could be a bit toasty...

https://meteofrance.com/previsions-meteo-france/arnage/72230 has it a bit breezy on Weds & Thurs, and possibly stormy on Sunday  >:D
