Next weekend - 18th & 19th - can anyone give me some hope?

UsedToWait

Hi weather watchers - I'm heading to Body&Soul festival next weekend (near Clonmellon, Co Westmeath) - last year it was one of the nicest weekends of the summer, but it's not looking too good for this year.
Accuweather is saying about 8mm of rain Sat, and 4 on Sunday.

Would any forecasters concur with that, or can you give me any hope that I'll need the factor 50?

Atlantic fully in control, pattern is heavy showers fronts crossing every few days coupled with days with less showers

Please note that these type of forecast change,ahem, like the weather.:)

Just having a quick look there i'd say showery with some nice sunshine and temp around 15 c.

Of course anything beyond 120 hours is very much subject to change.

I could live with that
Here's hoping it's more the sunshine than showers

The forecast on Accuweather has gone from 12 mm precipitation between the two days (forecast from last week) to saying 2.5 mm of precipitation between the two days, if this trend continues it should be a good weekend!

Dunno bout 18th/19th well I do (cool and showery)

but 24th on looks good to 28th. Warm too. However by the time this comes it will probably be still cool and shwery

Rather than a long answer giving all sorts of lunar & meteorlogical explanations...

...the answer is NO!

Bring the wellies, don't park in a field, forget about make-up, no need to get the hair done. Enjoy Yourself and wallow in the mud.
