Sorry if this is already posted - Couldn't see anything yet!?
According to Accuweather: - Warm but Cloudy and a few showers.
Can cope with that - not too hot and not too wet. Bring it on.

I love these weather forecast threads! ;D
Until about 48 hours before the race starts, they'll all probably say something different. Quelle surprise!
Plan for the worst, hope for the best ;)

Watching the weather forecasts is all part of the mounting excitement!
Obviously the only thing it can change is what stuff to pack, but then we always take clothes for all eventualities, especially as we'll be heading over on the Sunday before the race, plenty of chances for different weather patterns in a week!

Slightly nearer the circuit than the majority of the brethren, but we have been scraping windscreens this week and I am nearly out of firewood. 14C indoors is not normally expected when one gets up at this time of year!

I leave for the Northern Hemisphere in three days. What is packed on Wednesday is what is going to LM regardless of any weather forecast. Wish I had a crystal ball...

I'll be prepared for whatever the weather may throw at us as I will have full sailing wet weather gear with me. ;D

Ice cold water will be best. Also, if you could arrange it so the ground is at a 45 degree angle and I'm struggling to stand up straight that would be perfect. ;D

I feel that multiple buckets of water are required to test such weather gear to the full >:D

The current local forecast (from the aerodrome) is sunny throughout next week with 26C for the race weekend. Bring camouflaged pools to defeat the ACO spies and a very large fridge.

I'm going to ignore every forecast except Metro France, all the others show rain.
One is predicting a deluge on Thursday!
MF should know what they are talking about, it is their patch after all.

In all honesty, ,anything more than a couple of days hence, is very unreliable. Showing rain actually over the weekend is a good thing at this stage - it probably mean it'll be either earlier that that or later. Temps look fairly consistent though, so I think we can assume warm and wet or warm and dry!!!

Oh yes. Warm and dry last year until 40 minutes in and then it was warm and very wet.

Ah yes, I remember Robbo's crew taking the piss out of me and Andy an hour before, because we had our waterproofs with us!
