Somebody forgot to tell the weather!! I was scheduled to deliver a Sealine S25 from Southampton to Chichester tomorrow morning. Being dutiful I looked at the forecast!! Ah, it wouldn't be tomorrow then!!

Selsey Bill to Lyme Regis.

24 hour forecast:
Wind: south 5 or 6, veering southwest 5 to 7 overnight, then occasional gale 8 perhaps severe gale 9.
Weather: occasional rain.
Visibility: moderate or good with coastal fog.
Sea State: moderate building rough perhaps very rough on exposed waters.
Outlook for the following 24 hours:
Wind: southwest 6 to gale 8, perhaps severe gale 9 at first, veering west 5 to 7 on Tuesday.
Weather: occasional rain clearing from west.
Visibility: moderate or good, with fog patches at first.
Sea State: rough, perhaps very rough, on exposed waters.


The synoptic chart also looked fun for the week - lots of purple!!

Still waiting for 7Star to confirm the sailing. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif. Might have to bite the bullet and book the RoRo from Pireaus instead. Will give them till mid week to give me some firm dates.

Unless you fancy a slightly longer run?
