Is it windy in Blackpool?

Blowing a hoolie further South today - sadly think high winds might help the opposition more than us today.
 
Nice day but a little deceptive. Just been on the beach for the usual walk & going south was fine, coming back I realised the wind was definitely from the North 15-20 mph max & cold 🥶. Still a decent day for football though, just wrap up well at the ground........ oh I forgot 🙄
 
I admire your positivity Michelle and I hope the punters are back in Blackpool ASAP and all the tills are ringing in your place and all around the town


BUT


I've just been out to sort the bins and it's f£$%*"g freezing.
It’s not cold haha I’ve been out in the garden 5 minutes Walk from Bloomfield swept up and pegged out washing. It’s lovely. 😄😄😄😄😄
 
In Lincolnshire it was warm and sunny yesterday. Today it is sunny but with a very cold breeze. In fact, at 7am this morning, it actually snowed for 10 minutes!
 
Our Tangerine Wizards can cope with any conditions .

Unlike other teams we don’t complain about rain wind and dry pitches

We get on with it

It must be my age, but today I'm pleased to be able to watch the game on I follow rather than freezing my gnands off sitting in the South Stand.🥶
Yep, as S59 says, the wind from the North is cold and about 15 to 20 mph.
You obviously feel it more on the beach, but the side kicking towards the Armfield Stand will still have a significant wind advantage today. You're right Curryman, the South Stand would be very cold today
 
Barbecue weather here in Cambridge yesterday in shorts and tee shirt but like the Antarctic today with snow showers early on this morning- what a change! Cant wait for the match!

Put it this way, I wouldn't want to be running about a field in a pair of shorts and a nylon shirt.
 
I’d guess Gillingham will be knocking high balls into our penalty area with this wind. Could be a lottery.

Yep minger of a northerly affecting most of the UK - dusting of snow too in places. Overnight below freezing over the next couple of weeks here and there.

Out of the breeze tough it's a lovely spring day but a bit rubbish for April and Spring in general.
