So the FA Cup final is taking place in just over 3 weeks time on 21st May 2016. It will be a repeat of the 1990 final, with Man Utd taking on Crystal Palace. On that occasion, the match finished 3-3 and had to go to a replay, which Man Utd won 1-0.
The weather for those 2 games were as follows:
12th May 1990: 16c, cloudy with showers
17th May 1990: 22c, sunny
What will it be like this year?
Average high on 21st May is about 19c, so I will go for a sunny or partly cloudy, 15-20c day.

I think about the same as that, firstly, it's almost impossible to predict the weather a month in advance, second, I'm not seeing any particular weather pattern across the UK.
All cup final days since 2000. 2000-2006 were played at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, however I've used London Heathrow's figures, as with the other years. All courtesy of Tutiempo.

Isn't there a possibility of a team just in the Premier League will win after being outside of it for years? I go to a Creperie in the local market here, and the owner is from Italy. It is all he can talk about. I love bantering with him.
Leicester City is new to the PL right? How much are people in the UK rooting for them?

LOL you really don't understand how the competitions work. Premier League is not the same as FA Cup. They are two different tournaments. One is a league, the other one is a knockout competition.
This year? Spurs knocked them out of the FA Cup, back in January. It's a knock out competition, not the same as the Premier League.
They're still well clear at the top of the Premier League though. Absolutely incredible story if they win it!
What do you mean? I thought the top team when the season ends is the winner of the PL? Is the FA a different competition than being the PL champion?
