2003 was brutal as well, I got a shock! Could do with a hot year, surely we are overdue one!

I'm heading back to LM this year after last going in 2005/6/7, with some quite different weather!

2007 was a washout, and partly heralded the demise of my LM trips - with the other part being a dull race (AMR in GT1 aside) and camping in Beausejour (which was rubbish).

Everything crossed for at least some dry weather this year. Sun would be a bonus...

Meteo France has a reputation of being 'conservative" i.e. always predicting worse weather than it turns out to be - then it is always a pleasant surprise.

We were in Beausejour and went home early, only just got my car (a lowered Supra) off the grass. Many were towed off. Not been that bad since........

Accuweather suggests rainy this week and next but sunny for race weekend. Plan for boggy conditions in the camp sites? Cat update requested urgently

Firstly apologies for the late result on this but had some technology/weather issues over the weekend.
So as per previous years cat (or cats we now have 2) enter tent for a nose around from the front then hot hot hot if from the rear then wet wet wet

So the result of the 2014 Le Mans 24hr Groundhog (cat) day is as follows

Within 5 mins of the tent erection cat number one stood at the rear of the tent frown

But turned around and entered the said erection via the FRONT!!! biggrin

Within 10 mins of the tent erection cat number two without hesitation entered the tent from...the ... FRONT clap

I hereby confirm that the result of the 2014 Le Mans 24hr Groundhog (Cats) day predicts that this year will be SCORCIO!!!!! (Due to both cats entering via the front ). party


DISCLAIMER:- Never base important decisions or events on results from this weather prediction as cats are inherently untrustworthy. Thankyou.

Have a good un all and here's to a great Le Mans 2014 beer
