A brief guestimate says it'll probably hit Fairford sometime shortly after 4pm.

Raining now, Ben just posted on the Twitter feed.

Not sure which day to go at the moment - got flexible tickets, but the forecast changes every few hours and the websites don't all agree....

Most of the websites I've seen all agree that Saturday will be mostly dry with a slim chance of a very small shower, the rain happening now is due til about 7pm (on and off showers) then a shower in the early hours tomorrow morning.

Most of today's showers will be heavy but relatively short-lived, so I wouldn't worry too much. I don't see any more rain approaching right now, although obviously that could change.

Intel I was given from those on base are that Saturday looks the better. BBC forecast earlier on said there may be showers tomorrow, but should be some nice sunny spells between. Much the same as last year really.

Same as last year?
I hope not! Sunday was pouring down first thing in the morning and freezing when 558 went up.
Strangely I was nursing sunburn from Saturday.
Weird!
