Shower or rain???

Post: # 830452Post saintsRrising »

Why all the panic?

Everyone seems to talking as if it is going to rain all day...whereas the forecasts I have seen seem to indicate just occasional showers.

If the game gets close.....I'd back us in.

Forcast is for wind....I dont think that helps anyone...

Still clinging onto..the front coming early or weakening.....the forecast tommorrow night and Friday night will be more of a guide...but even then its still basically guess work as to what happens at the MCG...just win the bloody thing regardless sainters...might make it a lower scoring game which could work to our advantage 8-)

Yes, but that's not the City....

City is Few showers Min 8 Max 15 and no mention of hail

If you live in Melbourne you would be familiar with this.

As I see it Melbourne includes the suburbs, but the City, which is on the next line means the City....

latest forcast: late Wednesday evening.

Cloudy. Scattered showers with local hail or thunder possible in the afternoon. Winds west to northwesterly averaging up to 35 km/h tending west to southwesterly during the afternoon.

That forcast has the wind dropping. Betcha the forcast changes a fair bit before Saturday.
