Weather 2016

[Hugh Jass]

I'd take today's weather for the whole thing. Warm enough to wander around in t-shirt and shorts without being oppressively hot.

[JamieKThomas]

Exciting going from checking the monthly averages, now to the 28 day forecast and soon enough 2 weeks! 

 

It'll be exciting when the weekend starts appearing on the BBC weather app!

It's 24 in Stockport. Hotter than ideal by at least a couple of degrees.

22

21 or 22 is about right for festivaling,  I'd say.

Glasgow's ridiculously sunny again today, I'm in danger of losing my trademark pastey white complexion.

The downside is that everyone's that perennially drunk way that only comes with all day beer garden drinking.

23 here in Nottingham and it's borderline too hot for festivaling. I'd take this weather all day long but a degree or two more and it'd be too much!

[Mr.Tease]

A beautiful, sunny 23 degrees here in the north west- perfect festival weather- the bbc glastonbury webcam looks beautiful today too!

I don't think most people can tell the difference between a few degrees- I'm sure people can only distinguish between blocks of 5 or 10 degrees C, so essentially there are really only 6 percievable temperatures:

 

anything below 0 = freezing

0 to 10 = cold

10 to 15 = okay

15 to 20 = warm

20 to 30 = hot

30+ = roasting

 

I haven't tested out my theory on living test subjects yet, but I shall aim to do so in the days ahead.

Banging day down in The 'Set today!! 5 days of this would suit me just fine!!

Not true. You seriously don't think you can tell the difference between 14 and 17 degrees?

I cannot!

[kaytee...]

Manchester was sweltering today, 25 degrees but so, so humid. I don't mind the heat but if it's humid at a festival, it's not ideal. 

Seriously hope the weather hasn't peaked already and we get a bit of this in a couple of weeks.

We want it to rain now. Lots.

I'd like more than the whole of June's average rainfall (and some) to arrive well before the 22nd. Then, statistically, there's likely to be less thereafter (until July).

This is where I am. Not too pleased with the perfect dry weather just now. 

I reckon it's going to rain lots just before or during the festival. 

[fightoffyour]

Perfect today. Sunny and not too hot for festivalling at all.

That's not how statistics work.

Hardly seen the sun all week although it has remained dry. Temperatures been around 15-17. Sun yesterday afternoon enough to have a few hours on the beach drinking wine. Location in the Channel Islands.
