According to metcheck the weather varies. Yesterday Saturday was shown as wet, but today it shows it as fair. It reminds me of an old rhyme

Whether the weather be fine
Or whether the weather by not,
We'll weather the weather, whatever the weather,
Whether we like it or not.

Looking forward to meeting several TT'ers for the first time and mucking in with some ploughing and threshing. Proper job!!! :D

Expect to see four ploughing engines on the roads towards St Columb tomorrow (Friday)- whatever the weather. The weather forecasts are not consistent they seem to change dramatically every time I look at them.

I agree with you Charlie, the forecasts seem to lack a degree of consistency. However, I can guarantee dry weather between around 1130 - 1600 on Saturday as I carry a folding umbrella with me when I leave the car. This ensures that whilst I am walking around that it stays dry. It worked a treat at WESES this year. It rained all the way down from Ivybridge to Stithians and as soon as I got the umbrella out of the car it stopped and remained fine for the rest of the day!

You will likely find that the roller will leave you in the distance lol as it has done with other road locos;)
