wx is always crap at LBA
Rubbish, I've lived here for over 20 years and I can recall three or four occassions when it has been fine . Actually I can recall a couple of times when it's been good (ie flyable) weather in Leeds but not up at the airfield further North.

I was up at Durham Tees Valley Airport the other day & one of the ATCOs said that they treat a PROB30 as "It might..." & a PROB40 as "It most likely will...". Not sure how much that was based on fact & how much was an interpretation. Anyone care to comment?
