Hi there

I am off to Goodwood this Friday, and have heard differing weather reports, stating either rain, possibly thunderstorms, or basking hot. For the rest of the weekend I've heard the same

Anyone have any up-to date reports? [I know you can check on the BBC website etc but thought it'd be a good idea to have a place on PH.com dedicated to Goodwood's weather]

I've tried 3 different sources ( metcheck, bbc, Iphone) they all say more or less the same thing. A mixed bag ( rain showers and sunny spells) and a not too warm 20 degrees all weekend.

AccuWeather now saying ...
Times of clouds and sun. Winds from the SSW at 12 km/h. Realfeel®: 25 °C High: 23 °C

BBC still saying light rain. But they're NEVER right.

Sky now saying: Sunny Friday, saturday & sunday sunny with the chance of a light shower of two. Sky are normally pretty good.

Im also going on Friday. If it does piss it down, will that have any affect on the running of the hill climb? I imagine it'd be very spectactular if the course is wet.
