That's exactly why I would never cancel a trip due to rain. The forecasters never get it right. You can look at five different forecasts and they are all showing different things.

A weather forecast is just that...a forecast. If I had looked at the forecast yesterday then we were due rain all day. As it turns it just rained (albeit heavy for 30mins) about an hour ago.

Good, glad you made it, the weather was great although a little too windy for candles.   We were on the North Wall lighting candles - it's the wall to the left of the Cobb, we managed to get most of ours lit to start with but the wind was a bit much for them.

It's a fab event that raises money for local youth charities and this year Help for Heros as well, updated info

We cancelled our trip to Leominster, but our friends went. It wasn't as bad as predicted however they said it was bad on Saturday and our daughter wouldn't have liked it . Wanted the weather to be bad so it would justify us cancelling but wanted the weather to be good for our friends who had still gone! They said Sunday was lovely though.
