Weather in France - Calling OYBBK!!!

[RitzyTurnip]

We're going to france next week (South of Sarlat, near Cahors). The weather is pretty poor there at the moment apparently.

Please can you tell me that from 23rd - 30th Aug it's going to be brilliant sunshine with not a cloud in site get it, cos I'm camping!

TIA

Hang on a mo, :) I just need to google remember where cahors is!

I wouldn't hold out any faith at all in a forecast that far out, but at the moment GFS does continue to keep it unsettled I'm afraid. Do you fancy Portugal instead?

[RitzyTurnip]

Thanks OYBBK.

Such a shame that the weather is so poor at the moment. We were there this time last year and had 2 weeks of sun with temps of up to 38C!!

Can't do Portugal as I don't like flying

When do you think it will be more accurate to predict the weather for my holiday? Late next week?

Thanks again!

[OhYouBadBadKitten]

Yeah - give me a prod then and I'll have another look for you.

Were in Lalinde near Bergerac, yes it's raining and we have had showers most days but it's not cold and when the sun comes out it is very warm. Not usual beautiful sunshine though, thunder storms have been VERY LOUD!

[RitzyTurnip]

cath That's good to hear it's still warm even though it's been raining.

I do love a good thunderstorm!

[RitzyTurnip]

Just bumping for OYBBK to see what you think the weather will be like

TIA

It's more unsettled and cooler than it usually is for that region and I think you will see some showers mid week and again next weekend perhaps (not terribly confident that far out). Temps in the mid to high 20s. I think it will feel rather better than it has here recently though :)

Thanks a lot! Nearly at the tunnel now.

DH was amazed that mumsnet even does weather consultations

Bon voyage!
