  1. Indeed. Lest we forget, 2016 had very, very heavy rain for several days. There's literally not enough time before the gates open for that much water to fall unless it's a 2005 X10 event. And it won't be.
  2. Is it still saying loads of rain?
  3. Here's an actual link to the old thread, rather than a screenshot. There were lots of guesses and there's discussion on which are wrong. Also note that although it says it's 2022 edition, it's from before that festival, so more like 2019 numbers. https://www.efestivals.co.uk/forums/topic/239155-size-of-stages-2022-edition/
  4. Absolutely true. Most of us don't spend five days out in the open. It doesn't have to be roasting to take its toll on your skin.
  5. So boring. Anyway, that would be 2005, not 2016.
  6. I hope it's not gone any hotter.
  7. If we get Wed 2017 heat again, I'm going to wander around looking for a fire engine firing very cool water at everyone. I genuinely felt like I was going to pass out for a while, rubbing ice cubes on my head didn't seem to help.
  8. Although that specific picture can't happen again - today there's a drainage ditch where that lake was.
  9. Hang on, it didn't rain at all in 2010. I think @parsonjack is saying he had a day ticket that year.
  10. Yep, it's the "there will be weather 🤷‍♀️" symbol.
  11. It's a good job we're all different and none of us gets a vote, because I would have 20c dry over 24c damp any day of the week.
  12. @briddj may remember this, but wasn't there a long range forecast either last year or 2019 that turned out to be bang on - the GFS? 😯😯😯
  13. No offense to Gav, he seems nice enough, but isn't he just reading from the least accurate model at this timeframe? And he's never been to the festival, so it's not as if he has any particular insights as to what effect the weather will have.
  14. As much as hotter (>22) weather is lovely, I'm walking around in shorts and a light jacket at 18 and it's just so...livable. Maybe a bit chilly, but it's so easy to do stuff. Especially when walking about. And the pockets! Extra pockets from the jacket!!
  15. Just found a new forecast that I'm going with
  16. Because of that "scheduling conflict"? As far as I know, that's the only info. Even Pulp looking very unlikely.
  17. He posted the same thing on YouTube and I asked him about Somerset, but no reply.
  18. Only because they're using the old run, which has now been superseded.
  19. Depends which part of the festival. Sunday isn't accurate when the gates open.
  20. It's like you've never been away. Please don't leave the house until you set off for the festival!
