Where is everyone getting bad news from this? It basically says it's fine until Sunday, which will do me very nicely thanyewverrmush

[mandypants]

A special song for our rain loving friend

[mimis]

There will be sun, there will be rain. But not enough rain to make it muddy. The rain will be later in the weekend than is tradition. We will all be burnt and muddy and have dust up our noses by the end. You know it's truee!x

[Storm_NL]

Was it 1999 where the ground became muddy early on in the festival, and then baked by the Sunday, much like clay fired in a kiln?

I seem to remember my feet suffering whilst jigging about in front of the pyramid stage on what felt like lumpy concrete...

[Aragorn]

ok, well, if it rains this years ill have the oppotunity to see what it's like, my opinion will therefore be valid for next year!

[Aragorn]

the latest net weather forecast based on the 00z overnight has basically one or two very light showers friday /saturday and temps of around 25 degrees everyday

blooming scorching lol

[mario man]

don't forget people, countyfile on this evening rather than this morning...7pm start, weekly weather forecast usually in the final 20 mins of the programme, i'm getting the beers in 'specially

[scorp]

lookin interestin...potentially good.

here's the unisys pressure charts with precipitation overlaid on them. the sunday downpour has evaporated...excuse the pun, but still early days. hot southerlies have been replaced by a gentle easterly-ish or n.e. drift.

Only 1mm of rain - you could sit down in that

I'm gonna stop reading these forecasts. The best forecasters at the BBC weather centre can't reliably predict more than one day in advance,

[kohoutec]

I love the rain.. get over it sir

I just can't stand people like that WoW guy who doesn't stop talking about the whether for months and its completely ridiculous. yesterday it showed sun throughout the whole week and now its cloudy with rain.

Jackone has just updated YESTERDAYS forecast with a rating of 6 for those that are interested, but looks promising for an upgrade to 7 later

[Red Day]

I've done Glasto in sunshine and in heavy rain and the current forecast is

I'll take a dry one any year

[TheNewUnion]

00Hz (I have no idea what this means) sounds pretty promising and J1 is using words like odd shower and just about possible for the Friday, though does say wet Sunday?

Hoping for a 7 today with Country File supporting this later on today!

[rabid]

...and are famed for even getting the current weather wrong day after day...

I used to keep a chart.

They had a 80% failure rate of predicting the weather on the day.

Appalling....
