We had a HUGE thunder storm in work near Brum at about 4.45! It thundered for ages before the rain came. It was a real Glastonbury storm!

Keep weather related chat in the appropriate place peeps!! I'm in W9 and we had the same too, it was in Oxford an hour ago. And the sun's out again!

[Gingerbond]

Hail the size of golfballs at Glastonbury...see it IS going to be the Biblical Armageddon I have predicted!

[luckyman]

Mega rain and thunder in North London, Hoping the same is happening in Glasto....

My thoughts are that the deluge of rain like this NEEDS to happen now, so hopefully it won't at the festival, all over and done with so sun can ensue!!!

I think the monsoon that was predicted has come early, while we are not yet in a field in Somerset!!

Heres hoping my theory is correct!!

"Here comes the sun do do do do"

Anyone for a game of pitch and putt!?

I know it's wrong but I laughed earlier reading the story on BBC about a cow that got struck by lightening while sheltering under a tree. About 14 other cows also died as they were standing in the same puddle. I feel shameful now.

I wish the storms would come to East Sussex...I feel sick cos of the mugginess in the air. No sign of big grey clouds and only had one tiny little rumble hours ago!

As far as I know it hasn't rained in Somerset and Bristol yet, but it is looking a bit bleak. Let's hope it chucks it down today and tomorrow so it doesn't next week!

(Because that's how weather works of course.. )

Despite the existence of a very long and very good weather thread this one refuses to die. So, from now on this thread is about bears.

[theillustrator]

have you considered a cold shower with a hose pipe??

OMG that is a fantasy.....

anywbo, are we on topic yet

[bombfrog]

Bears, not weather.

You should be careful what you say! The cows from Worthy Farm frequently read these forums and wouldn't appreciate you being so flippant about their brethren!

They will hunt you down at the farm!

[Sam Crawley]

I agree! Don't go upsetting the cows! You will be their guest for 5 days!!!

Quote from Bobby in King of the Hill as he eats a steak in an episode I saw this evening:

"Do you think cows know they taste this good?"

[budvar]

Same in M19. I even have had to take the dogs that were drying off the washing line..

[givememoney]

I will shit my pants if there's a lighting storm, like yesterday @ glasto!!!!!!!!!!
