I was looking to do EGBB - EBOS on any one day last week.
No Wx radar in the plane and recent days have shown heavy squall lines over a wide front with no gaps between the CB's.
Originally Wed looked good.
- clear to the east and a front out to the west not due to arrive until the night.
Forecast changed with the front coming in earlier and prob 30 TS thrown in.
Decided against it..........usual route LAM-BPK (overhead LTN) dct EGBB. This takes you overhead Milton Keynes and on the news later that evening, the heaviest downpour had been Nr. M.K. with 60mm in about 30 mins.
Right decision. Why risk it if you don't have to. There will then be another opportunity so don't be pressured.
Going this week.........forecast good too
