Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 When was the squad flying out? Was it today (Friday)? If so did anyone see them at the airport(s) and any news on which players were not on the flight.........maybe because they might be transferring out?

IMO even the very best of them are only really broadly good for the 24 hrs immediately after a forecast is posted. Would not be entirely surprised if the weather bomb due for east coast of the USA did not produce very unseasonal weather even into next week even as far south as Florida. Could be quite a run of sales of warm clothing over there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything after that is just a guide, but the 9:57 pm weather on BBC News 24 is a more detailed forecast and they do try a 10 day outlook every night and do a decent job some of the time. This is probably one of the strangest we have been involved in for a long time mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.A.I 36,183 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 The forecasts I see from Monday on into next week for Orlando seems to be overcast but mild ... not quite sunny as fuck but an improvement on the past few days anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Tis the season for departing off the pathways into 'off topic' lands - just look at the other Forida location thread which started off nicely then got utterly hijacked into the realms of Scottish politics (or what passes for politics in Scotland these days). So a wee weather forcasting diversion is ok in my book. I worked on the project to move the Met Office from Bracknell to Exeter some years ago and discovered that despite having 2 of the most powerful super-computers in the UK to aid their forecasting the forecasts are not really much good other than for the next 24hrs.....and even then there can be quite big errors. Just my impression and opinion of course. Maybe they've got better in more recent times....... but I'm not convinced. Don't think the USA forecasts beyond a 24 hour period are much better. Now, diversion over, back to football. I hope we have a good tournament over there and the bears attending have a great time regardless of the weather, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we have a good tournament over there and the bears attending have a great time regardless of the weather, If I had remembered about the off topic in the other Florida thread I would never have mentioned it RB I grew up in Shetland and the weather is kinda ingrained into your being. I was just seeing the news tonight and the bit about the Braer oil tanker, to my surprise it was 25 years today since it went aground and I remember arriving at the fire station at the airport about 6:20 am to be met by our local policeman to say a tanker was drifting close to Sumburgh Head, the next few days were incredible and the wind never eased for three or four days. Sorry for that latest diversion and yes I do hope the lads do well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
