WEATHER 2009 !

[chemicalsuk]

The forecasts remind me of 2005 when the weathermen couldn't seem to make their minds up what the weather was going to do. It was scorching on the Thursday, and then the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse turned up on Friday morning

Fingers crossed though, its going to be a good 'un!

Radio Wales earlier today interviewed someone performing in the circus area - the forecaster gave her a glasto forecast and mentioned that on the whole it was ok with a few possibly heavy showers on Friday.

But the amount forecast at its worst (I don't think) is as much as fell Thursday night last year (hopefully).

It's really hit and miss at the moment - we may pick up a shower we may totally miss out.

Lets keep thinking positive.

Nothing gets me in the mood for Glasto like this tread - and yet every year it seems to be the same,

I think, when taking account of extremes of optimism and pessimism the message coming through is that it will rain at some point, and will turn muddy at some point; but then thats just Glastonbury.

The thing I found about last year was that while it was mostly frym, it was pretty cold and windy - that seems different this year. I'm about 20 mins from the site at the mo, and it is pretty muggy, has been for a couple of days.

As for mud - mixed emotions, it can be depressing, but then it also acts as a unifying common enemy and improves the spirit on site. I also always like to look at this clip which was posted on here a few years back....

Nice to see a more positive mood. Keep up the optism as I'm confident we could be in for a better one than some comments in this thread would have us believe!

Right you horrible lot. I'm off to stay at a friends for the evening before we hit the road tomorrow morning. Keep up the good work, still time for things to turn around considerably IMO. It's been emotional

At least the weather has improved, still a little worried though after looking at all the forcasts.

[pinkegokane]

bloody midday weather forecaster on the beeb just said there's a chance of heavy thunderstorms 'and if you're going to glastonbury... good luck!'

Richard Angwin just been on Points West.

In relation to Worthy Farm, he said :-

Wed dry, sunny & warm.

Thu dry and warm, a bit cloudier than Wed.

Then possibility of some heavy thundery showers on Friday into Saturday, then clear for rest of the weekend. So at least Sunday looking good.

We had persistent drizzle for a couple of hours this morning but the sun is now shining :-)
