Not good news.

Well we've had the most unusual September for a long time. Several blocking high pressures and the jet stream further north than usually has meant we've not had the wind or weather that would suit us. We are also running out of daylight hours at a rapid rate of knots!

Here's the latest from Dave Thomson

Hi Marra,

Yes - There are no possible days currently forecast (about 10 days ahead ) The jet stream seem to be getting established North of us so its mostly NW and W. Some chance of SW about a week from now but it looks cloudy and rainy again.

I'll keep looking and let you know if there are any suitable days coming up.

We only have 11 hours of daylight up until 8th October - This is pushing it for safety reasons. Its also getting colder. We do not want to spend a night in the Irish Sea!
