    UK Outlook for Friday 25 Jun 2010 to Sunday 4 Jul 2010:

    Remaining mainly dry and fairly settled towards the south and east of the UK at first with some sunshine. More in the way of cloud and some showery rain towards the north and west, with this extending further south and east at times. Mist or low cloud may affect western and northern coasts. Temperatures mostly warm or very warm, possibly becoming hot inland in southern England over the first weekend, with the chance of thundery showers developing here, but cooling off slightly thereafter. Into the start of July, it looks to remain largely dry in the south, with more in the way of rain or showers for the north and northwest. Possibly becoming very warm again in the south. Winds mainly light, but fresh at times in the northwest.

    Updated: Glastonbury Festival's weather prediction

    The last few Glasto's have seen a mixture of washed out mayhem with heavy rain causing flooded tents and slippery mud and basking sunshine. So what will this year be like?

    BBC West weatherman Richard Angwin takes an advance look at the prospects for Glastonbury 2009:

    With the start of the Glastonbury Festival now nearly upon us, the weather picture is becoming clearer, at least for the first few days. One thing is certain, Glastonbury 2009 will be the warmest and sunniest for quite a few years. Unfortunately, by the weekend things could change and the traditional mud bath is a slim, but very real, possibility.

    For the next few days it will remain dry and bright with temperatures perhaps as a high as 23 degrees by the time the first festival goers start to pitch their tents. (The ground could be quite dry and dusty.)

    Wednesday and Thursday will be warm and dry with light winds and plenty of sunshine, so a good sunscreen and plenty of water and strongly recommended. Friday could well remain dry and quite sunny with temperatures in the low twenties but there could be a few heavy showers around Worthy Farm during the late afternoon and evening.

    Although much of the weekend will also be dry, warm and fairly sunny the risk of isolated, slow-moving thunderstorms will increase. The risk of one occurring over Pilton is probably about 40%, high enough to make wellies and waterproofs worth taking even if they hopefully spend the whole festival taking up useful room in the corner of your tent.

    Over the next 24 hours we will try to pinpoint the shower risk with a bit more precision and confidence but the general outlook for this year still looks very encouraging.

    And we'll update this feature throughout the week with all the latest forecasts

    The Rakes- one album wonders

    The View - idiot music for idiots, by idiots

    White Lies - watered down Editors, so ergo, a bit like adding water to already watered squash. Sub Editors if you will

    The Ting Tings - shut up and let me go - take your own advice love

    Bloc Party - great music, awful, awful,awful, awful, awful lyrics

    Jack Penate - dross

    Jamie T - absolute dross daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarlin i'm frum sawth lawdwn innit

    Kasabian - if I wanted to listen to Primal Scream, I would listen to Primal Scream. Also seem to be followed by REAL PEOPLE who like REAL MUSIC to HAVE IT to whilst drinking stella and wearing bucket hats

    The Script - it's like they had a competiton to create the most unoriginal band ever

    Paulo Nutini - nothing music

    Pendulum - eurotrance backed with soft rock with the vocoder effect from Cher's "Believe" over every song

    Enter Sjikari - abomination of a band

    Bat For Lashes - I simply don't get it

    Glasvegas - no wonder your dad left you yer miserable prick

    The Wombats - a bunch of c**ts

    Just Jack - nursey rhymes from a tosser

    Ladyhawke - generic 80s electro pop -OH BUT SHE'S MARKETED AS INDIE SO IT'S OK TO LIKE HER

    Noisettes - After their advert success, I wonder if old school fans will be at the front chanting WHERE WERE YOU WHEN WE WERE SHIT

    There, that was a worthwhile way to spend my time wasn't it. But hey ho, apparently if I don't slag things off, then the site will go out of business so it's for all for your own good.

    Met Office Update:

    UK Outlook for Wednesday 24 Jun 2009 to Friday 3 Jul 2009:

    The weather will be fine and dry for most of the country, with any patchy rain and drizzle in northern Scotland clearing by Thursday. North Sea coasts may be affected by some cloud, and a brisk easterly wind may affect parts of the south, but the warm and dry weather is expected for most of the country, and is set to continue into the weekend. Temperatures will be warm or very warm although it will feel cooler on the coasts as sea breezes develop during the day. There is a chance of some heavy, thundery showers in the south east towards the end of the weekend. The risk of thundery showers continues into next week, although some drier spells are also expected. Temperatures falling a little.
