    Storm Hector. A massive depression settling over the country? How very appropriate.

      *checks local weather forecast for tomorrow*

      Ah, 40% chance of rain between eight and ten in the morning, dry but a little breezy after that.

      Is this by any chance one of those cases where the Daily Mail is using "Britain" to mean "a comparatively small area in the south of Britain"?

          Possibly.

              It's only 32.5% chance if you take the rain as dividends.

                Indeed but they actually mean small area in the North of Britain for a change.

                You may got a slight breeze if you are south of Carlisle.

                  I'll take it as a loan from an offshore cloud, but then it might retrospectively flood my house last year.

                    16% chance of rain for you now, but you might want to give Noah a hand with his ark.
