What kind of weather can I expect?

We are not in the arctic or at high altitude, however this is England and rain and wind can often show up unannounced, so be prepared with weather proof outer layers. I will be keeping a close eye on predicted forecasts in the run up to your workshop, so I can advise you accordingly of any extra equipment which may be needed.
