Planning: Weather Forecast for Filming Days

Since Group 10 is going to be filming the bulk of our music video in the second half of half term it has given us time to get all our final details prepared and ready for when we go pick up our equipment at 3:30pm on Thursday 1st November. However, the one thing that we do not have the power to control is the weather and since most of our locations are exterior we will be spending the majority of the time outside in public filming.
However, this could be a problem if the weather isn't very good, particularly if it rains we will not be able to film as the equipment could get damaged or broken and we do not have anything to protect the camera and tripod with. Also, rain, snow and thunder is not apart of our motif or location ideas in any way so this could give us shots that aren't what we wanted and could give possibly make the locations we plan to film at unaccessible if they are closed due to the bad weather or dangerous because of the conditions.

Here are screenshots of what the weather is predicted to be like on days we will be filming at this week:

THURSDAY 1ST NOVEMBER:

It looks like it will be raining from 9 to 12 but from 1pm onwards the weather is expected to be fairly sunny but most importantly dry which is good for us as we will be filming from 3:30pm onwards. 

FRIDAY 2ND NOVEMBER

We will be meeting up at 10am and filming from that time up to the end of the day, or at least until we have shots that we are satisfied with so that should add up to about 8 hours of filming on friday. It looks like it will rain slightly at 3pm on friday but the rest of the day looks to be dry but slightly cloudy.

SUNDAY 4TH NOVEMBER

On Sunday it is expected to be mostly dry but it will rain pretty heavily in the afternoon, however, this does not affect our filming schedule because Sunday being our last day of filming, we are going to be filming at Emily's house in her bedroom and cellar so the weather will not affect our filming. 

Overall the weather seems to be working to our favour and it does not seem like we will be unable to film on the days we have planned out. However, we will be bringing big umbrellas as a precaution to protect the equipment when we are filming in the exterior locations; which will be on Thursday 1st November and Friday 2nd November.
