Anyone seen the weather forecast for next weekend?

There's the BSFA and Science Fiction Foundation AGMs on Saturday, and I have some family business to attend to in the evening. I then want to travel to Swindon for Dragonmeet SW, a one-day games con on Sunday. If anyone is interested, the venue is the Crofts Sports Centre in Swindon, 10am and run through to 6pm, trade hall closing 4pm.

The trouble is that the trains are badly screwed up on Sunday, I'd have to leave home before six AM to get there early. It looks like the best route will be by bike unless I travel the night before and stay in a hotel overnight, which given I won't get there until ten or so makes little sense - but it's about 80 miles, and I can't honestly say I fancy biking it much unless the weather is pretty good.

So... has anyone seen a long-range forecast for next weekend?

My iPod app is predicting rain for Friday in Swindon, but it won't commit itself further ahead than that.

This morning the Beeb were predicting a downturn in the weather for the end of the week. I didn't know about Dragonmeet SW. Swindon's not that far away. I'll see if I can trot over. I'll drop you a line if I'm going to be there. Are you running anything?
