LM 2016 Weather

My favourite weather app (not British) is now showing the forecast for the week leading up to race day, so I reckon that it's time to start the perennial "when will it rain" thread?

The cats have spoken SCORCIO

Ignore all other forcasts (well maybe)

rain and flooding all over the place at the moment

Just shows how optimistic that site is! Thursday was dry, the weekend showery but then supposedly my seaweed tells me that it gets better. If not those on Beausejour are advised to only bring a 4x4, wear waders and have floating tents. Last weekend we had 100 mm in three hours, or one month's worth but it carried on raining for days. Blue and MB are sandy so drain but Annexe and BSJ clay based.

Didn't the ACO do a lot of drainage work on BSJ a few years back not sure it worked but fingers crossed

Not as much as needed I feel. It was about 2008 when the tunnels at the circuit were 8 ft deep I seem to remember and it was as bad last weekend if not worse. Whatever, the grass must be a yard high and they won't cut it until the Monday of the race if things are as usual.

Flip Flops and wellies again. I always bring my snow chain in case of thick mud.

Warming up so make sure you bring mosi spay.

If only the race was today! Beautiful sunrise, not a breath of wind and am writing this on the terrace. Here's hoping.

Did they predict last years Friday tornado. Nearly got out of bed to help the others secure the tent

Meteo-France is a little more promising.

A bit hit and miss

Meteo have just updated, Paul you might meet the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse on your way into BN, and they will be hanging around during Thursday as well.
