Le Mans Weather

[neilsie]

What's all this talk of weather forcasts? A typical British obsession.

What you need to ask yourself is.

If weather forcasting was 100% accurate and they were forcasting pissing rain, high winds, sleet, the occasional tornado and a plague of locusts thrown in for good measure, would it stop any of us going?

I think not.

So, lets forget the weather and just get out there and enjoy ourselves.

quite true, but it does influence on mode of transport  (eg car or bike) and what i need to take in way of clothing!

yes but only in the morning and at 0.3mm on the metcheck website, temps upto 30degC earlier in the week!

[Ferrari Spider]

you're willing stick your neck out now rick and say it will only rain in the morning

[Lawnmower Man]

It's only down as Very Light Rainso it may well be just what we want.  Settle the Dust and take out the heat.

I stand by my previous prediction.

Warm and sunny, but possibly cooler with some rain.

[Ferrari Spider]

due you think the chance of t,storms has subsided, nick?

[nickliv]

Not sure really, the forecasts seem to suggest a warm few days, not excessively hot,  so the threat of a TS may be lower.  Wouldn't bet a beer on it. Would drink a beer in it though Love a good thunderstorm me, was at the 24h karting at LM a good few years ado, and there was the MOTHER of all cloudbursts, 3 inches of water on the track, and the wet T shirts were something to behold

At the risk of sounding like yer granny (as well, possibly, as looking like her), the weather is set to be in the low 30s for the beginning of next week.  Anybody walking round the town, watching scrutineering etc. don't forget to drink loads of water along with the beer and 'poo.  No site worse than a bunch of lobster-coloured brits passing out from heat exhaustion (sure that's wrong where's the spellcheck on this thing...)

Just a quick guide to detect the early signs of dehydration.

One of the first signs of dehydration is feeling thirsty.

If you think you might not be getting enough fluids, check if you are showing any of these other common signs of dehydration:


dark coloured urine and not passing much when you go to the toilet

headaches

confusion and irritability

lack of concentration


all classic LM symptoms, as a rule of thumb at least 3-4 litres of water a day, maybe more if the booze content is high.

I always find the 'Pool of Life' works wonders when your sliding do the slippery slope of had to much. The Liverpool Boys pool has brought me back from the brink of death a few times.
