it's looking mount doom and mordor with all the black clouds looming out widnes way. Don't think we'll be lucky enough for ghe rain to stay off all night.

Lashing down in Knowsley

Gloomy in Salford Quays, and that aint just the weather !

Wet and gloomy in St Helens, but then again it always is!

Been raining in Chester/Ellesmere Port area for the past half hour.

Pouring down in Warrington now .

And here

and I've got a 2.5 mile walk to go pick up my car from being serviced

might see if I can cadge a lift off someone in the office!

Light rain by 7.

Met Office reckons heavy all evening!

Absolutely lashing it down. All bets off now, could go either way. Nightmare!

Miserable grey skies but still dry here in Huddersfield it seems, was hoping for no rain back home

Gotta get used to this. I cannot remember a grand final without e weather.

Sunny warm and blue sky here in Bewsey

Absolutely right. We seem to struggle in the wet.

Although tonight it will just be wet underfoot as the precipitation will be gone by about 6.30pm. We seem to cope well enough on wet and heavy ground, it's just when it's constant downpours a la Salford @ home. Admittedly against Saints we didn't do too badly.

Anyway it's currently 34 degrees here in Dubai so I'll just stick the air con up a notch to keep my beer from going warm while I watch the match on TV

suns out now good news for our free flowing style of rugby

We beat Saints and Wigan when it was wet.

It doesnt matter

Same in Sankey now, may go and put my shorts on.

Well said 85

Yeah and then got dicked by Salford...

Because we played crap..

seems to have cleared right up (for now at least) we even have blue skies. The pitch is going to be in a bad way though after the battering it got today meaning the ball will very quickly become wet and slippery leading to lots of handling errors (not good for the nerves to watch lol)
