Weather thread 2010

[Pinhead]

One of the biggest problems with 2007 is it had rained heavily and solidly for the month before meaning the ground was totally saturated and f**ked from the start.

[Langdale Wolf]

And it certainly has not done this on site this year - in fact all reports are that it has remained fairly dry in the area.

Perhaps we could all stay behind after the festival and partake in some cow hunting.....

weather for 2007 if people want to compare

Friday 22/06/07

With low pressure in control it's looking unsettled and showery for most parts of Britain. A number of showers may be heavy with a risk of thunder and only some fleeting amounts of sunshine in between the showers. It does turn dry in northern Scotland. Highs of 16 to 20C.

Saturday 23/06/07

A lot of cloud but just a few showers for Scotland and northern England today. Elsewhere it's cloudy with further heavy showers and rain. A mainly dry day to come for Northern Ireland. Highs of 14 to 18C.

Sunday 24/06/07

Chilly today with light rain across England and Wales. This clears all but the far south in the afternoon. For Scotland and Northern Ireland it should be dry and bright. Highs at 13 to 18C.

Here are the weather reports for 2007 if we want to compare.

I didn't look at the dates of that 07 forecast and thought that was a forecast for this year! I like Accuweather, they were the only website to get the forecast for my holiday to Rome right last year.

Is this some sick joke? you need to make the 2007 BOLD! or something to not make me poo myself when i read it.

[muddyslingbax]

i keep popping back in from time to time so see what's going down in the weather thread and today i find you're debating 2007 weather??

i think i need an anorak and a weak lemon drink

[Mr Ploppy]

Yes of course! Drink your weak lemon drink..........NOW!

I am not a hobby horse, oh no! I am a hobby LION!

[PabloCoke]

This, also the amount of rain that is showing at present is V light isnt it? I know it wasnt heavy in 1997 but we certainly had long periods of moderate rainfall???

Certainly looks like wellies and poncho throughout at this stage though...lets hope for more changes!!!

For those of us flying in from outside the UK dose anyone have any longterm forecasts on the Volcanic Ash Cloud? will it stay away or do I need to look at changing plans?

IT IS REAL AND I AM ROD HULL!!!

What's with all the 2007 comparisons anyway? That's pretty much WORST case scenario, where's all this pessimism come from eh? Let's stop this nonsense right now - at least the whole festival comes into reliable range

[tinners]

For those of us flying in from outside the UK dose anyone have any longterm forecasts on the Volcanic Ash Cloud? will it stay away or do I need to look at changing plans?

[donthaveacoolname]

It's literally just letting off steam at the moment and is in what volcanologists call a 'paused phase'. If this lasts three months then it will be regarded as dormant. So probably best not to worry about it.

[Philw]

Let's remember this is only 1 run and the others up until then had been looking more promising. Just relax and hope it goes away.

[jezzer]

All this weather watching is making me nervous, the next run should be out soon

[Bernsville]

Just checked out Accuweather. I'll take their forecast and run. They don't mention the "R" word once.

It'll be interesting to see what Jackone's take on todays developments is later.

[sprocketrocket]

My ring is going 5p 50p today . However theres no need to fear as I had to cycle home in the pissing rain as per my arrangement with the rain gods. It'll all be gone soon.
