So with that latest run does anyone think, in the next couple of days, forecasters on the telly will be predicting a hot and dusty end to the month. I know they too get it wrong but strangely when they hint at stuff like this with a cheesy smirk on their face I tend to believe them more than anyone else. Well apart from devonhammer!

Don't trust me. Seriously, it brings me out in a cold sweat to post on NetWeather. Also, I'm an eternal optimist.

For the forecasters to predict good weather it would need a succession of good runs, as pointed out by WorthyRaver. Also, they're not going to predict much based on just GFS, which is not that reliable. When the ECM data starts to come in on Sunday, then we'll get a much better idea.

Glasto & forum newbie. However this thread is taking over my life. I must check it at least 10 times a day. I dream of Germans duelling with frogs.

If it is not sunny, I will probably need psychiatric admission after all this stress!

TWO have had consistent sun forecast from Glasto Tuesday onwards for the last few days now. And what with that latest run/chart thing the hammer posted up I reckon things are looking on the up. :)

On a different subject Devonhammer, is the theme to Monkey the greatest TV theme ever or not?

    • Another one from Sheffield DocFest this weekend, Earth Wind & Fire docu, directed by Questlove. Sensational archive footage, contributions from band members, family, plus a lot of very big fans (Stevie, Lionel, Flea, the Obamas) and a warts n all assessment of the genius / flawed human being that was Maurice White. Also, I never realised he started out as a jazz drummer with Ramsay Lewis. Well worth a watch.
    • In a 6,800-word Substack essay, external, the Clacton MP said "anti-white racism was embedded into the state", and that legislation aimed at equality was a form of "social cleansing"   .https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdjkd4mp93zo   The privileged white c**t hasn’t got a clue what racism is.
