Hello again,
Phew, it's a hot one in Wombourne today, and that's the case for much of England and Wales. Much cooler in Scotland though.
It's good to be back from holiday (liar! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif ).
If you need to talk to a forecaster we are here all weekend. It's me on throughout. The number is 090 666 444 80 and that costs £1.50 per minute. Or, if you prefer to pay by credit card call 01902 895252, state you want to pay by credit card as soon as the call is answered, and then you'll pay £11.75 for the whole call.

Have a good weekend,

WEEKEND SAILING FORECAST
Issued: 1430 Thursday 23rd June 2005
FRIDAY
A thundery breakdown to the fine conditions many of us have been experiencing, as an area of low pressure moves off the Continent, through the southern half of the British Isles. An occluded front (marking the boundary of much fresher air) is expected to be from southern Scotland to eastern Ireland at midday on Friday. This will be moving slowly southeast through the day, as a ridge of high pressure builds to the northwest.
An unsettled day for much of England and Wales. Heavy, sometime torrential downpours of rain are possible, with parts of eastern Wales, the Midlands and northern England most likely to see these. However, a heavy downpour is likely just about anywhere.
Brighter and fresher weather should reach northwest England, western Wales and southwest England later.
For Scotland and Ireland it will be feeling fresher, with some sunny spells here. The best of the sunshine on western coasts.
Winds will be variable 5-10kt (F2-F3) over England as the low clears, then becoming mainly N-NW 8-10kt (F3). For Scotland and Ireland generally NE 8-12kt (F3).
SATURDAY
The ridge of high pressure should have built across the whole of the UK and Ireland through Saturday, introducing a more N-NE airflow. The occluded front will be weak, and should be clearing southern England in the afternoon, after affecting parts of Wales, the Midlands and East Anglia in the morning.
So a dull start in the morning for much of central Wales, the Midlands, eastern and southern England. A few outbreaks of rain are possible with moderate or poor visibility in places. It should become dry almost everywhere during the morning, with breaks in the cloud, especially north of the front and along southern coasts. Coasts of East Anglia and Kent are always at risk from patchy rain. The afternoon sees much brighter weather in ales, the Midlands and East Anglia with broken cloud for southern England.
Scotland, Ireland and northern England having sunny spells and mainly dry conditions, although a few showers are likely on coasts.
Winds will be NW 8-12kt (F3) ahead of the occlusion, NE 12-15kt (F4) behind it.
SUNDAY
The ridge if high pressure strengthens across the UK and Ireland on Sunday, although a warm front may approach northwest Scotland later in the day.
A few morning mist patches, and a chilly start to the morning in most places. After this it will be a fine day for many with good spells of sunshine. There is a slight risk of a shower along the coasts of East Anglia, but generally most places will be dry.
Winds will be from the NE 10-15kt (F3-F4) across England and Wales, mainly N-NW 5-10kt (f3) over northern England, Ireland and Scotland.
