If it is rainy, it will be wet!!

If it is sunny, it will be dry!!

How is that for accurate. Forecasts don't look so good at this stage though.

It is going to be a sunny, cloud free day. 25 Degree max. All good except for a moderate easterly wind pumping at 25km/h. Between 11 and 2 it drops slightly to about 18km/h. This is the best prediction for Sat, today. Will recheck it on Friday...
