The Bonkers Weather
Its just bonkers.
Ran to the car in the most torrential rain which was like some Amazon rainforest monsoon storm type thing
Shut the car door and I'm now set in the carpark 1 minute late in blue skys.
It's just nuts

Re: The Bonkers Weather
Weather forecasts have been crap lately. It said this morning I was going to get soaked. No rain at all and still sunny here in South Coventry.

Re: The Bonkers Weather
Opposite down here Kwacky, weather said dry all day, got 10 minutes up the road, got completely drenched for the next 20 minutes
Remember: If in Doubt use Full Throttle, It may not make the situation any better, But it will end the suspense...

Re: The Bonkers Weather
Was driving down some country roads today and they were more like rivers in places. To be honest at one point a wave engulfed the entire car. I was more submariner than driver

Re: The Bonkers Weather
25% chance of light showers on the way home, according to the forecast.
I couldn't see in places the rain was that heavy

Re: The Bonkers Weather
HAHA!
Just been out on the roof garden and turned the tables over. Also had a 12 foot tarp out there that I've been trying to dry out for the last week with very little success. That had to come in wet because it won't be there in the morning.

Re: The Bonkers Weather
Stick the tarp over your head and it will definitely be dry by the morning.......only issue is you could be in Germany, Africa or Iraq depending on wind direction
