Was onsite Yesterday. The sides of the roads are churned up with plenty of Mud, in place alot. In the fields all green and mainly firm underfoot, great for getting pegs in, much more rain and it'll turn as they had some terrible rain on Saturday, and there is standing water in places. All looks great down there though.

I didn't see anything about the Campervan field, oh and the enterences to the car parks are quite muddy.

Latest update from devonhammer at .. http://forum.netweather.tv/topic/69427-glastonbury-2011/page__st__204

Latest (06z) GFS run has a ridge of high pressure on Friday, but this is forced South because of the high over Greenland and the next low coming off the Atlantic although it does re-establish itself on Saturday afternoon. This could see showers on every day, some heavy, some persistent, although we could see some sunshine on Friday morning, Saturday and Sunday.

At this late stage it is still all to play for as we are caught between a high and a low. I'm sticking with a showery run up until Wednesday followed by a largely dry Thursday to Sunday, but with occasional showers.

The pre-installed weather App on iPhone is saying nice things, hazy sunshine on Friday and Saturday, unsettled up until then though....Apple seem to get just about everything else right, so i'm going with that!

The weather is a bit odd here in Glastobnury [town] at the moment. I can see the big band of rain heading our way on the Met Office charts but it's taking its time. There is no wind to speak of and the temp outside is fairly warm. We still have hazy sunshine. The longer that band of rain takes to arrive the better for ground conditions. At least the site will have had a few hours of warm hazy sunshine type weather to dry it out a bit before the next deluge.

    • I wasn’t slagging Scooter off, they are undeniably silly. As I said, they are the definition of a meme booking for Download. People requested them for years because it was silly.

    • Having done all three, Porto is lovely, very chilled but nowhere near as exciting as Barcelona (nor as many options). Bilbao BBK has charm but again not a patch on Barcelona really.   ps and the beer was 5.50, not 5, last year 😉 
    • Honest question and with the risk of getting slaughtered, do you feel people should stop the chatting on the entire field? When my group is in the front rows we surely keep the talking to a minimum and largely only about how great or bad the artist is. But surely on the main field when you are further back (lets say around the bars (200 meters from the podium) you should be able to have a conversation. If people are still annoyed about that I would recommend them moving up further.
    • I just genuinely think they don't understand technology and its felt like this since the invention of the internet.   Also see say a speech on a Monday saying we want to be a world leader in "this thing" then on a Wednesday another speech saying "this thing" is bad and needs to be banned/regulated out of existance.
